Share your iPhone screen with anyone, anywhere — they just open a link. BeamVue turns your screen into a live web page. Send the link (or show the QR code) and whoever you send it to watches in the browser they already have. No app for them. No account for you. No meeting to schedule. WHY PEOPLE USE IT • Teaching on school Wi-Fi that blocks AirPlay — the classroom computer just opens a URL • Helping a parent who can't work something out on their phone • Showing a client something without setting up a call first • Putting your screen on a hotel or conference-room TV through its browser WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Nothing to install for the people watching — any modern browser works • Privacy Guard blurs notifications and card numbers on your device, before a single frame ever leaves your phone • Keeps streaming when you switch apps — the usual failure point in other tools • Viewers can draw on your screen from their own browser • Live captions, freeze-frame, whiteboard, and shareable cloud recording links • AirPlay to Apple TV built in HONEST PRICING Beaming to any browser is free. You get 60 HD Cloud minutes a month, then it keeps going unlimited in SD with a watermark — you are never cut off in the middle of a presentation. Note: apps that block screen recording (streaming services and some banking apps) will show a black screen. That is their protection, not a bug, and no mirroring app can get around it. — — — BeamVue Pro is available as an auto-renewable subscription (monthly or yearly) or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Spatial Display at 3 against BeamVue's 1. Spatial Display also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
