Use tablet as second monitor for Windows PC by David Papkin

If you dont have the budget to buy a second monitor for your WFH Zoom/Teams/WebEx conferences, you can use your old tablet.

My favorite is spacedesk. You can use it PC –> IPAD , PC–> Android.

Here is a step-by-step guide on using an iPad as a second monitor with Windows using the recommended Spacedesk app:

  1. Download and install the Spacedesk driver software on your Windows PC from Windows store
  2. Download and install the Spacedesk app on your iPad from the App Store.
  3. Make sure your Windows PC and iPad are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  4. Open the Spacedesk app on your iPad. It will automatically detect your Windows PC.
  5. Open the Spacedesk driver console on your Windows PC. You should see your iPad listed as an available display.
  6. Click on your iPad in the console to connect it as a wireless second monitor.
  7. Right-click on your Windows desktop and go to Display Settings.
  8. In the Display Settings, set the Multiple Displays drop-down to “Extend these displays”.
  9. Drag and position the monitor icons to match your physical setup of the main monitor and iPad.
  10. Adjust the resolution and scaling for the iPad display as needed under Advanced Display
