Great product, great support!!

Works great with my Surface Pro 3 and IPAD Air 2!! No lag, just a great second screen on the go! I initially had some display driver issues (probably because I had upgraded to Windows 10), but customer support patiently and systematically walk me through the fix. Highly recommend if you need a very portable second screen without the high cost of buying another device.

Exactly as advertised! Both Mac and Windows

This app does exactly as advertised. Ridiculously simple setup and usage. Works great on my iPad Mini 2 with both my Mac and Windows machines using the host apps for those native platforms.

Works great

Simple to use and with modern devices no noticeable lag.

Wow! Wish I found this sooner.

This app works great. Now I can travel with a second monitor. Always have my iPad with me anyway and now I can put it to even greater use. Easy setup on MacBook Air but had some trouble with a Windows 7 PC. Being a corporate PC and not having admin rights didnt help. After a few emails with Duet they helped me and my admin get it working. Its awesome. Well worth the $9.99.

Dual monitor setup anywhere!

At home I have my Mac book Pro retina with a 30" cinema as 2nd monitor. While on the road, I have my MacBook Air since its light to travel with but I miss dual screen productivity. Not any more! My iPad Air 2 is attached via Duet and I have more desktop real estate to play with. Its a no brainier if you love dual screens at home.

Love it. Good Tech Support

After first install, my Firefox browser crashed. Several uninstalls and reinstalls of both Duet an Firefox didnt solve problem. Emailed tech support and got response within one day to turn off hardware acceleration in Firefox and reinstall. Now all is well and I love it. Four stars instead of 5 due to the Firefox snag. I turned off auto start for iTunes to keep it from popping up every time I plug in iPad to use as a monitor.

Windows 10 Users Shouldnt buy

Used to work great with my iPad mini 3 on Windows 8. Windows 10 and Duet dont play well at all. iPad mini 4 and iPad Pro 9.7 are problematic. Unusable. Dont buy.

Very disappointed

I bought this with high hopes but nothing works and my PC basically crashes. A huge pixelated image appears and as the mouse wont work and no keyboard commands work, I have to hard start the system. $10 down the drain.

Started to crash

Started to crash after update 9.3.1 with Windows. Please fix, this is the only actually useful app I have.

loyal customer since launch

I love this app and their support is top notch!

Love it!

This app is incredible! I am twice as productive with it. This app makes the technology much easier than others like it. I would give it 10 stars if I could

Incredibly disappointing on Windows 10. Very, very poor.

This company should just be up front and admit that they dont know what they are doing on Windows 10 yet, rather than claiming they support it. The computer app automatically changes my computers resolution and re-arranges ALL of my desktop icons every time I plug in the Lightning cable. This is my work laptop, so paying $10 for an app that makes my workflow more difficult and time consuming is absolutely ridiculous. I will give support a very brief window to fix the issue, but based on the comments about lackluster support that I see here, I have little hope. Bottom line- if you have Windows, stay away. This Mom and Pop shop evidently doesnt have the resources to fully support what they claim in the app description.

Poor Windows 10 performance

Crashes very often with Windows 10

Best Dual Display App I Have Ever Used!

Ok, first off, this application is the best. Not going to lie, I was sketchy at first. But after taking the dive, it solved my problem in buying another monitor for my MacBook Pro. Key features I love: Total control of the settings in the taskbar Uses the same fps for MacBooks Customizing the way I feel about which way I want my iPad Pro to be oriented What I DONT love: Just the resolution displayed on the screen, since its not as crisp as the set resolution for the iPad Pro or the MacBook Pro. Its like a pixelated screen. Fix that please! I use this app now a lot for coding. Especially that because it allows me to have more room other than just using one screen and having it split. Which is what I dislike very much. On top of that, my iPad Pro feels like a mini iMac because of the iQunix Zand I purchased. What a true combination of productivity this app provides for the underdog of coding. Other than that, it does what it a consumer would expect it to. Great job guys. Especially the ex-Apple engineer that made this. Kudos to you man.

Small Second Monitor for "low cost"

I got this app a month or two ago and it works great! It essentially makes a second monitor for my MacBook Pro (which is extremely nice for an engineer in training) and it works good. The resolution is a little grainy with the settings I use. The resolution can be improved slightly with some adjustments in the settings but this makes my MacBook sound like a plane engine getting ready for take off so I tend to use low settings to reduce the possibility of my MacBook taking flight. Honestly, for a cheap second monitor, its definitely worth the $10.

FRAUD! Sending bill for fraud which caused chaos and hours lost.

How is this still being sold as Windows compatible ? FRAUD! Developers respect users and WScode, these guys are NOT developers..they are hacky assclowns who fail but refuse to admit it..cuz then theyd have to give refunds. DO NOT BUY FOR WINDOWS

Works great for gamers

I installed as a ghetto second screen for Skype etc., and touchscreen off iPad works, and I can use it as a drawing tablet. Also you can run games 60fps off it and it works flawlessly as long as you get a good Cpu. I just bought a long lightning cable for bed gaming as its small and light

Perfection.

Works exactly as you would expect it to. And it makes an underutilized iPad Pro work for a living.

Does not work

A waste of money. Glad others were able to find it useful.

Its Great! ... But

Duet is probably the best of its kind out there and it is mostly very well made. There are just a few kinks that need to be ironed out. For example the status bar in OSX fails to load sometimes, on both displays (regardless of which graphics card Im using). The resolution settings with the Duet app dont always work. If I switch my resolution from System Preferences my Macs screen goes black. Note its not blank cause I can see my cursor on it, just the rest is black. For reference Im using a late 2013 MBPr with the GPU with the latest version of El Capitan at the time of this writing. Having said this if you just plug and play, the quality is genuinely fine and FPS is insane with very little input lag! Definitely purchase this and dont bother looking elsewhere. Very versatile, this!
