A picture is worth a thousand words and a video is worth more than many pictures. Sometimes the fastest way for a person to know what's happening on your mobile phone is to see it with their eyes. In this case there are apps that allow you share the screen with others.
We will focus on applications for share the screen with other phones and not through a TV or PC, in cases where a friend or family member asks you to help fix or fix something on your mobile phone. Some programs on our list will allow for remote control, while others only display content, without interruption.
Skype
Skype is primarily an app to make calls and video calls, but fortunately its mobile version saves opportunities sharing screen with someone else instead of a camera picture. This is obtained from an ongoing call, by calling on Screen share.
Screen sharing via Skype has the advantage that you can use your contacts on different platforms, without the need for complex configuration. This way, someone will see what's happening on your mobile screen, even if they can't communicate.

The climb
Inkwire is a request by Koush, founder of ClockWorkMod and SuperSU. The app doesn't let you control the other remotely via a mobile phone, but you can have a voice chat at once and draw on the screen.
In order to use Inkwire it is important that both people have the app installed. Who wants to share screen requirements provide the code number to another person (link may be sent) to make the connection.

Screen casting
Another very different, albeit less effective, method is Screen Stream. The application installs a picture of your mobile phone and transmits it through a HTTP server. Practice is an easy way share the screen with anyone who opens the web address browser.
This way, it's very easy to share the screen with other mobiles or devices, with the sole need of having a web browser. The bad thing is access online You will need to configure your router properly.

Teamviewer
We couldn't talk about screen sharing without talking about Teamviewer. For a few years now it is possible to control an Android phone from another to use Teamviewer applications. This process is not complicated by itself, being extremely complicated to know which app to install, because there are over 100 Playviewer applications on Google Play.
The process is more subtle than other options like Inkwire (for example, you need to create an account and add a device to it), but in return you can control an Android phone from another. In this case, one needs to install Teamviewer Host (the one that shares the screen) with other Teamviewer remotely.

AirDroid Remote Support
AirDroid has a solution similar to that of Teamviewer. In this case, anyone who is going to share the screen must install Airdroid Remote Support while someone else should install AirMirror. Making the connection you need to give to someone else the numeric code.
While the screen is shared, texts and messages can be sent, in addition to displaying images on the screen showing the user's gestures. The bad thing is that this free version only allows you 10 minutes per call, so you must be quick to teach what you want to teach.
