Sendspark opens on whichever monitor is set as your primary display, and the camera bubble can only appear on that same screen. To open Sendspark on a different monitor, set that monitor as your main display in Windows Display settings, then fully close and reopen Sendspark. You can still record content from any screen during a session.

Key takeaways

  • Sendspark, like other Windows applications, opens on the monitor set as the primary display, and the camera bubble can only appear on the screen where the app was launched.
  • To move Sendspark to another screen, set that monitor as your main display (Display settings → “Make this my main display”), then fully close and reopen Sendspark.
  • You cannot move the camera bubble to another screen mid-session, it stays on the monitor where the app was opened.
  • You can still record content from any screen: when selecting what to share, choose content from any monitor even though the camera bubble is fixed to the primary screen.
If you use multiple monitors, you may want to control which screen Sendspark opens on, especially since the camera bubble can only appear on the screen where the application is launched.
