Duet Display, an app billed as the first solution to turn your Apple tablet into a second display and a high-performance drawing tablet for your Mac or Windows PC, was updated on App Store today with some new features.
The new Duet Displaynow lets you have the drawing experience on your iPad with the speedy rendering and sheer hardware power of a desktop.
The update brings out a number of enhancements and new customizations, including a customized pressure curve, advanced gesture support, a more fluid drawing experience, improved color quality and more.
Here are the key highlights in this release of Duet Display:
Duet Display works over a USB connection as wired connections are significantly faster and far more responsive than wireless solutions. The app’s speedy rendering engine has a much lower latency than Apple’s AirPlay technology.
Duet Display has proven to be very valuable to artists, designers and video editors as it essentially replaces a Wacom drawing tablet with your iPad Pro and Apple Pencil.
The app supports finger drawing, too.
Aside from drawing support, Duet Display can be used to turn your iPad into a second screen for your Mac or Windows PC. For instance, you could use your iPad Pro to keep tabs on your social media feeds while editing a document on your Mac’s primary display.
The ability to turn a supported iOS device an external monitor for a Mac should be especially handy while you’re traveling or if you cannot afford an eternal display for your computer.
Duet Display for iOS is a $19.99 value on App Store.
To celebrate today’s update, the app is on sale today for $9.99.
A pro-level upgrade which unlocks the ability to use your Apple tablet as a drawing tablet for your computer costs an additional $19.99 per year as an in-app subscription.
