iDisplay app review: use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch as a secondary display for your Mac or PC computer

Introduction

This is an ingenious app which enables you to use your mobile device as a secondary device for your Mac or computer, so you can double up and streamline your workspace whether you want to move items, control music and video playback, or even draw.

The geeky side of me has definitely come out while reviewing this app because I’ve been playing around with it to see what it’s capable of. iDisplay really is a great idea and I’ll definitely be using it for keeping things handy on a secondary screen.

One of the most amazing things about this app is that with a single Mac you can connect up to 32 mobile devices to create a vast network of screens that would otherwise fill an entire room if they were full-size monitors.

iWow!

Before you’ll be able to start using this app, you’ll need to download the iDisplay desktop application from the website. This only takes a couple of minutes and once it’s done you’ll be up and running within mere moments.

Once you open up the app on your mobile device you’ll be presented with a list of computers you can connect to and all you have to do is tap the correct one and then confirm the connection on the desktop software.

From here, you can select whether you want to use standard or double resolution, depending on what kind of quality you need for the task at hand. It really is as simple as that, at least for me running Windows on my laptop, so I’m very impressed with how user-friendly iDisplay is as a whole. Please note that Windows 7 Starter Edition is not supported.

 

Customize to Your Heart's Content

Furthermore, you can zoom and pan your desktop and very easily switch between portrait and landscape orientations by simply rotating your mobile device to have it automatically adjust.

The customizations are also very impressive. You can adjust the display settings for each mobile device you use as your secondary display and iDisplay will remember your preferences.

Another cool feature allows you to create a list of your most frequently used apps so that you can move them to iDisplay with one click.
