Does what others claim

It just works. I've had absolutely no problems using this as a second monitor for my Mac book Air 11". No lag, no drama. It's cheaper and more reliable than AirDisplay. Further, it delivers the on-screen keyboard that stopped working on AirDisplay. What more could I say? ---- Update November 2020: Still the best!
This app is Amazing - Solved so many issues for me

Since I don’t have sidecar on my 2012 Mac mini and I didn’t want to force the sidecar script due to concerns I read online. I needed a creative solution to solve my problem. After reading recent reviews on other apps I wanted something stable. Wow, this app is it!!!!!!!! I have a small closet that I converted into a soundproof recording booth. I bought this app to wirelessly connect to my iPad Pro so I could record from the room without being in the garage. This app is amazing. No lag and worked better than when I was using the AirPlay display on the smart TV. Saved me A lot of money instead of buying another smart TV just to use when I was recording. The only thing I noticed was the app would lose connection when I accidentally turned the iPad screen. Simple fix was to lock the screen. Installation was simple BTW. After downloading the desktop app and giving it permission I was up and running. Literally took all of three minutes. Works just as well as some of the other wired screen extending apps. You won’t be disappointed. Additionally it helped me have a second mixing screen for Ableton when working on my 13” MacBook Pro as well.
yo this is amazing

The reviews here looked nice but I googled around a bit and wasn't finding quite as many users as I'd like to feel confident. So it felt like a swing in the dark a bit. I was pleasantly surprised when it immediately worked amazingly. You see some small lag when scrolling. A video on streamable worked shockingly well. The touch gestures alone are amazing. I often hesitate to try and work in a coffeeshop or something if I'm working on a project that benefits from two screens. This is a life-changer.
Did not work

The application did not work for my computer. I will be contacting the company for a refund.
Rediculous lag - no useable

The free product works well and as expected - but as other reviews point out. The air version just records the screen and delays the Viewing . Terrible - want a Refund
Best alternative from sidecar ✌️

I used to have an ipad 2017 and used this app with my MacBook Air 2015... It was magical! I was so relieved I didn’t need to settle with an adapter. And so I recently got the new iPad Pro 2020 because all the people doing their unboxing videos made me cave in & come to the dark side... but Bih lemme tell you this app has been a life saver and then some since I’ve been working from home. I just learned that when my MacBook is closed, I can still work off my ipad with the MacBook interface; which blew my mind and hence me writing this review ^_^
Not working anymore!!!!!

I was really happy with the app, untill maybe an update or something, but i cant extend the display anymore. It only mirrors or makes it a complete different screen. But i need the extended screen option to watch a screen recording using 2 screens. It doesnt allow me to use the second screen anymore. This is really frustrating. Im using a macbook. And i paid for this and now its useless to me??♀️
I can't find the words..

This is the best way for my iPad to turn to a second monitor and it works well with drawing application which I’m using this for my iPad to turn to a drawing tablet. Overall, cheap and a very good quality application.
