Extend Windows 10 Desktop to iPad with Duet Display

If you always wanted to use the spare iPad at your home as a second screen with your Windows PC, the developers behind the Duet Display have released a Windows Client that allows you to extend your desktop to any iOS device. Extending your device is not a big deal; what is different is when it works over cross-platform.

When it comes to the setup, the experience is a plug and play type. You will need to install the Windows client, the app on iPad, and when you connect it over the lightning cable, the PC will treat it as an extended display. Then you can use it just like any second monitor. Only if the iPad would have been bigger, you could have to turn it entirely into a touch-based monitor.

The app costs $9.99, today, in the App store while the client is available for free, and can be downloaded from the website here. You can also use this app to extend the display of your macOS to iPad.
