It Works

This thing just works. It does exactly what it says and it is easy to get set up and going.

Does the job so well!

Purchased to use my 5k iMac as a monitor. Works fantastically. Now also using it to make my iPad a second display when I'm not at home.

Highest recommendation!

Great way to get a second screen

I use Luna to turn my iPad into a second screen and to use my ageing iMac as a 5K monitor. You might need to invest in a Thunderbolt cable to get the best results, but overall a great product.

Love this option for display

Its great for simple work or visual static work. The frame rate on the ipad monitor is pretty low, feels like maybe 18-24, but I don’t mind since thats not the main purpose of it. Its for sure worth not paying a monthly subscription like other options charge

Not recommended

The software works via internet with so much latency and low quality. It works with cable fine. Most horrible is time to time it just
doesn’t work specifically with iOS updates. Overall, not satisfied and not recommended.
