Welcome to the DisplayLink iPad host software download page.
The DisplayLink iPad app turns your iPad into an extended monitor for your PC. Great for improving your productivity by freeing up desktop space on your notebook or desktop computer. Just drag any open window or application on to the iPad display sitting next to your primary display. Park your browser, email, social networking site, IM, or application control console on the iPad display and avoid application view switching on your primary display.
Unlike competing products you'll see in the app store, DisplayLink operates in true, uncompromised Windows 7 Aero mode like all the award winning DisplayLink multi-monitor adapter and docking products available from the leading PC OEMs, including HP, Toshiba, Samsung, and others. Other extended display apps essentially drop to Basic Mode operation, losing the Aero desktop features on your PC and extended display such as translucency and thumb-nail previewing from the task bar. By operating as Windows 7 was intended, DisplayLink avoids the application compatibility issues on the extended display that other solutions introduce by reverting to Basic Mode operation.
Key Features:
- Creates an interactive, secondary wireless display for your PC with the iPad
- Windows 7, Vista (32 and 64bit) and XP (32bit) compatible
- Configuration using the familiar Windows graphics display utility
- Discovers and connects the iPad screen to your PC over your wireless network quickly and reliably
- Operates seamlessly with other DisplayLink multi-monitor and dock products to create a rich, productive multi-monitor environment
