When does desktopCapture API be available in mobile Chrome?

[Jack]

I'm trying to make a screen sharing web application using webRTC and it works well on my PC. 

But it doesn't works on my mobile Chrome(40.0.2214.109) and I heard that the mobile Chrome doesn't support chrome extension API.

It seems the mobile Chrome doesn't support  desktopCapture API.

I hope to share a screen and view it on browser, no matter it's on mobile or PC, but is it possible?

If it isn't, when does I can use such extensions and APIs?

Aside from Chrome for Android not supporting Chrome extensions/apps, I believe entire-screen capture requires root permissions on Android (because there might be private information in the notification shade/etc), so it's not really possible.

Correction, as of Android KitKat, there is an API https://developer.android.com/google/play-services/cast.html that can cast the screen to a nearby receiving device (including a properly configured PC, it looks like).  But that API isn't exposed from Chrome for Android (and there currently aren't plans to do so), nor is it exactly what you want.
