2022 works perfectly with iPad 1 and Gaming laptop running Windows 10 Pro
Logging into the Apple iCloud and Store from the iPad 1 was painful. As another poster said, purchase the app from another Apple device, then do cloud download to iPad 1.
Installed iTunes from Microsoft store on my gaming laptop. Login to iTunes. Downloaded from the website specified by the app. Disconnect and reconnect USB A from laptop if iPad 1 not detected by iTunes.
Adjust monitors (iPad was primary after software installation , had to set laptop screen back to primary).
Works perfectly displaying discord while I’m gaming on laptop monitor.

Working with iPad 1 in 2021
Ok, to purchase for iPad 1, purchase from newer iOS device and then access from purchased on iPad 1 App Store. To lower latency, just use 800x600 resolution. Looks more appropriate anyways. Not bad, very little lag. Going to find out if I can use yousician with the lag, perhaps I can just delay the audio to match. Anyways I have my Casio Privia digital piano hooked up to the Mac mini with iPad 1 as my “ultra thin monitor” and am enjoying all my vst instruments through headphones. And access to my DAWS. Mac is zip tied to piano stand, pretty tucked away. Thanks TwoMon.

It doesn’t work
Plz refund!
I had a new iPad and now an old one, both work
This is a great app for versatility as well as because it WORKS. I have favorite wifi apps... but only this one works all the time.. you DO need hdmi to set it up... i mean you have to see you of screen ... after that, I am able to use it as my main monitor or as an extension. Love it

Stopped working, terrible service prices
Great while it worked. Can’t connect, and they make you jump through confusing hoops just to contact them for help.
Not working
Everything is installed including iTunes. Will not connect to tablet and keeps prompting to install iTunes.
Wonderful
I had purchased the bundle for usb pc but it didn’t work like expected. I then found this app which is what I needed. This app is great! Waiting to hear from the developers if I can get a refund for my previous choice and buy this instead. Great work!
Nice app, with a few kinks
This app works as described by extended your computer display on a second monitor. I used this to add an additional monitor while traveling using my laptop and iPad Pro 12.9 display. The dimensions of the screen as others have mentioned you may have to adjust, but it works well with added benefit of touch screen from the iPad. Only glitch or kink is when connected I can not print documents. Not a major issue but enough of a hassle that I’ve decided to test out a portable monitor for at home and use this app primarily while traveling.

Does Not Work
Does not work with Windows 7.
Nice app!
Have been using TwoMon for a while, with Windows 7 and a 2012 iPad, and currently with an iPap Air 2 and Windows 10. Very happy with it. Works great. Sometimes it can be laggy, but that has been usually a conflict with some other app on the PC side of things. Most annoying thing is having to install iTunes on the PC to connect the iPad (I don’t use iTunes), but there are drivers you can install so the iPad is recognized by Windows without having to install the entire iTunes app (and yes, this is an Apple thing, not MS). Thumbs up TwoMon!

It doesn’t work for iPad 1
If you want to use an iPad 1 as a second monitor (extended) then you need to find a different option, I lost my money with this.
Newest Update Damaged my MAC
Your newest update crashed my new iMac and now it does not boot up, forcing me to format the whole disk and lose months of valuable information on my computer.
USB works great
I just bought USB and am very pleased. I was using Duet, but they couldn’t get it to work with Win10. Twomon has more features though. I would like to use Twomon Air. I am having a connection problem. I’ll figure it out.
Very Poor App *on mac
Doesn’t actually act as another app (on mac). It only acts as an extended display. I wanted it to be another display like Duet. I would not recommend.
Spectacular
Look no farther for a windows extended monitor solution. This is a *great* app and works well on wifi or USB. I own them both. My Ipad Pro 12.9 works perfectly. Great resolution options (I like 1280x1024 on my 12.9 pro), great options for using ipad to make a nearly native touch solution for windows! Tremendous value and you can use an older Ipad 1 or 2 too.

Annoying, Unnecessary, Requirement
I used to use this app and was going to install on a computer at work where I needed a temporary 2nd monitor. The requirement to have iTunes installed is both annoying and unnecessary. There are many other dual monitor apps out there without this limitation that are much better.
Does not work at all
And the support is horrible, basically no support. When I contacted support for help or refund, they force you to provide LOG file but there are no clear instructions on where the log files are created to upload,, basically you cannot contact support without them, hence the most horrible support. Don't waste your money and find something with better reviews.

it just werks
enables an ipad 1st gen to become a monitor for windows 10. high cpu usage though.
App Keeps Crashing
I purchased this app in hope of using my old iPad 1 as an extenxted desktop. I downloaded the app and the first time I used it, it worked as promoted. However, there were a number of bugs. First, I could not adjust the screen size on the extended desktop so everythhing was over sized - such as Safari running gmail.
When adjusting the screen size, the app started to crash every time it was activated. I found the support information to be very limited on the app's developer site. in an effort to resolve the problem, I uninstalled and re-installed the app on both my mac and ipad with no luck.
I was going to try and reach out directly to the developer, yet there no is readily visible way to communicate with him/her on how to possible resolve the issue.

Works!
My iPad 1st gen is finally useful. My only complaints are the drivers aren't signed, so I have to hold F8 and boot without driver signature enforcement. Also there are various graphical features (such as dropdown menus in iTunes) that are not shown on the extra display. It's hard to explain. This is certainly not a deal breaker for me though!
