Both are free to download. InfiniteX2P Pro sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and External Display Desktop sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

External Display Desktop holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: External Display Desktop has 19 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of InfiniteX2P Pro's written reviews are positive against 61% of External Display Desktop's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

InfiniteX2P Pro ships an update every 3 days, External Display Desktop every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
