I recommend having a stand to keep it propped up - something like this works great if you're using your tablet with a laptop, while a more adjustable stand like this is ideal for desktop usage. You rearrange your monitors from your computer's Display settings, drag windows to your tablet, and otherwise use it as a second monitor for a productivity boost. It will establish a connection to your computer, and a blank desktop will appear on your tablet. (The iPad app appears to be completely free, while the Android app is $7 - though there's a free trial version that works for 10 minutes at a time.)Īfter installing both the desktop and tablet apps, ensure the desktop app is running on your computer, connect your tablet to your computer with a USB cable, then launch the XDisplay app on your tablet. Splashtop Wired XDisplay has two components: a desktop agent that runs in the background on your PC or Mac, and an iPad app or Android app that runs on your tablet. It only works when connected over USB, and isn't the smoothest option I've used, but it'll do the job adequately for not a lot of money.
If your Mac or iPad isn't supported by Sidecar - or you're a Windows and Android user - Splashtop Wired XDisplay is a third-party app that can turn your tablet into a second monitor. The cheap, cross-platform option: Splashtop Wired XDisplay Check out Apple's Sidecar manual for more details.
