I like this.

Nice application. But I feel wifi connection is a little bit slow. can customers have more options to connect iPad and Mac? Such us,wire and Bluetooth. And it does not work well when I put iTunes into iPad screen and watch movies.

The desktop app is not a very Mac like app

The desktop app is not very a Mac like app. It forces OSX to change the display resolution and does not change it back to the proper resolution when app is shutdown. Also, since many other apps rely on the display/GPU it affects them too. On the plus side, I now have a use for my old XP box that I dont mind setting to a lower resolution. The bottom line is save your money and spend it on iPad productivity apps instead of trying to extend your Mac desktop.

Doesnt deserve 1 star

This is the worst app I have ever downloaded in my whole life! It doesnt do anything like what is described. I would like my money back.

Doesnt play video and messed up displays.

Doesnt play video and messed up displays. To get rid of the phantom "VGA" display you need to uninstall using their uninstall program. I wouldnt recommend. $5.00 down the drain.

Was unable to use. Would not refund my purchase. DO NOT BUY!!!!

Tried this app for a day. It quite clearly did not work as advertised to stream video to my devices. No refunds - HUGE SCAM. Apple really needs to do more when apps like this are on the market. I think I deserve a full refund (it was $9.99 when I purchased)...

App does not work

I ran the installer on my computer and I got a blue screen of death.

Its a crash

Thank you idisplay you are an amazing program. If you want to crash your hard drive. Idisplay not only gets the job done but it makes if smooth and efficient. Now if you would like to know how to do this I will let you guys in on my closely guarded secret. It takes only 9 steps 1. Buy the app on your idevice 2. Install it on your computer (thats not the problem) 3. Run it for the first time 4. Now here comes the fun 5. Go into the setting of the app and enter your administrator password 6. Set the app so that you could enable multiple devices to connect at once. 7. Then it will tell you once again to enter your administrator password 8. Then you must reboot your computer to have the changes take effect 9. Congratulations your computer wont reboot your hard drive is now crashed

Great product!

Love love love this app! Extremely useful for having 2 displays while travelling! I cant live without it!

Keeps disconnecting

Lowered my productivity by over 44% from how often it disconnected and refused to reconnect.

Very handy- works well

I installed on Win 7 laptop of average capability. Installation of IDisplay was straight forward. iDisplay causes a bit of a slow down ,when running, but nothing major. App works fine- and very handy. I wouldnt run it all the time, as an external monitor, but as a short term solution, or as a wireless "remote" it works great.

Doesnt work

Cant select or use single click or double click as stated on the iPad. Double click brings up menu on main monitor (macbook with 10.8) instead of the iPad.

Doesn’t work

Additional display mode doesn’t work. All you get is a black screen.

Terrible

First time I ever requested a refund. Extremely temperamental. Worked OK for a friend but would not work on mine at all (either black screen or pixels). Get airdisplay instead.

Junk, dont waste your time.

Throws your icons all over the place, moves all your windows to the iPad. Mouse pointer moves so slow on the iPad it is useless for everything except a Skype window (keyboard only). This app needs a major update.

Great app

This a great app. I use it as a portable extra display. May sometime lag a bit but in 99% of the times it works flawlessly. To avoid the problem described by another reviewer, just adjust your settings properly. I highly recommend iDisplay.

Doesnt work for Windows 8.1

Doesnt work on my ipad 2 for windows 8.1. Look online theres many other people that complain about it not working.

Obsolete

Dont waste your money now that Duet is available and its initial bugs have been worked out. Duet makes all WiFi based external monitor apps obsolete. Duet uses the standard lightning cable as the external display connection between your Mac and iPad. I used or rather have had Air Display and then Air Display 2 , iDisplay and other WiFi based external display apps for years. Air Display 2 is the best WiFi based iPad external monitor app, but even it was such a hassle with such poor performance and limited usability that I pretty much stopped using it. I have the latest AirPort Extreme AC router, an iPad Air 2 and MacBook retina all with AC wireless but even with the latest fastest WiFi, the limitations of a WiFi connection were always obvious. Forget using WiFi based external display apps on the go... They dont work at all with most public WiFi for security reasons, and even amateur public WiFi where Air Display could work, the connection and WiFi display performance were so port as to be an exercise in self torture. I always wished a wired solution would exist, and now it does. Some former Apple engineers figured out how to use the standard lightning cable as the external display connection. Their app Duet is the first iPad as external display app that "just works" anywhere, and performs almost as well as a dedicated external monitor. Until other developers come up with equal or better apps that also use a lightning cable, Duet is the only external monitor app worth using.

waste of money

sluggish, slow, useless… After spending two hours trying to find the best settings for this useless app, I had to accept that I got ripped… Should have read the reviews… My fault

Pure junk!

How many times do we have to uninstall and reinstall this? Seriously. And were lucky if things connect at the rate of once in every ten times. I got tired of wasting time and getting frustrated. Will be removing this app permanently from my iPad.

Please Support to Windows8

MacとWinXPでは問題ありませんが、Windows8で使用すると ただのミラーモードとしてしか映りません。 サブディスプレーとしての動作の改善を宜しくお願いします
