So much better than Duet

By dr4kool4 (Pcmac user)

I moved from Duet because their software broke my computer. I had to restore it because Duet disabled my dedicated GPU and it wouldn’t work even after the app was uninstalled. this app is less intrusive, free, doesn’t require an account, and works better than Duet. The only issue with this app is that you lose connectivity when you trigger the Notification Center or when you receive a call (if you have hand off enabled). Minor issues that can be fixed via a software update. In the time being I highly recommend this app.
Great app.

By SFRADS (Pcmac user)

It does what it is supposed to. And it does it for free!!!! However i found it unintuitive that after initial connection, It makes the iPad screen as the primary screen. So I had to fool the computer to think that the slave screen is the primary screen which is my actual computer. In essence all the icons went on the iPad originally. Also the screen shows up on the left of the original. Again unintuitive for everyone that has done the HDMI connection to actual monitors. I have a sneaky suspicion that this is why the ipad became primary. The 3 changes that would make this app perfect, are: 1. Fix the primary screen issue ( unless i am missing something) 2. Make the slave screen on the right, not left. 3. Make it possible for wired connection. And the last one is my most important issue.
Great Work

By Concerned Wikipedia Reader (Pcmac user)

I love this app as it fulfills my specific needs of a separate monitor, but the latest update has broke it completely and I’m unable to use it as I did before. I’m on iPad OS 13.3.1 and my screen alignment is weird (it’s on a smaller vertical screen on a horizontal display). The app crashes a lot and I’m unable to use it properly. Please fix this issue as soon as possible. Update: Problem fixed in a day! This app is great.
Didn’t work well for me

By waclark57 (Pcmac user)

I have been using Duet Display and wanted to check this product out since it had high reviews. I uninstalled Duet and installed SD. The first problem I ran into was the incompatible Hook driver (left over from Duet). The good news is that Datatronic had good support info on how to fix this and I was able to do that quickly. Once the product was working properly I was disappointed to see that I could not adjust the resolution on the iPad. At 1024x768 it just didn’t look that good. It would not take input from the iPad keyboard as Duet will. This is not a show stopper but it is a useful feature of other products. If you are ok with the lower resolution I this light be a good choice, the price is right. When there’s an update I’ll revisit this product to see if it’s improved.
