A few years ago, AstroPad introduced Luna Display, a dongle that allows you to use an iPad as a second screen for a Mac, a function that came a few years later natively to macOS are Sidecar and that, as expected, did not sit very well in the company.
Fortunately, AstroPad has reacted so as not to run out of market and has just released version 5.0 of the software for its Luna Display product, a version that Allows you to use an iPad as a second screen for a Windows-managed PC, thus expanding the number of potential users.
Luna Display works through a USB-C, Mini DisplayPort or HDMI port and is priced at $ 129, a price for which we can buy a secondary monitor, but without the versatility that being able to use our iPad offers us when we really have the need to use a second screen.
But in addition, it also allows us to access the content that is displayed on the iPad screen and interact with himEither with a mouse, keyboard or even with the Apple Pencil.
This device requires a minimum of:
- PC: Managed by Windows 10 64-bit Build 1809 or later
- iPad: iOS 12.1 or later
- WiFi / Network recommended: 802.11n wired Ethernet
As I mentioned above, the usual price of Luna Display is $ 129, however, until next October 15, we can get hold of this device with a 20% discount, so its final price remains at $ 104.
If you already have this device, you just have to open the application to update to the latest version and start using this dongle with a PC running Windows 10 or higher.
