Well, now the time has come for everybody to try out Astropad Studio on Windows, thanks to the company's freshly announced public beta program, called Project Blue. We've been eagerly awaiting to see how drawing on a PC will measure up when tethered to the iPad. The iPad app was recently updated adding support to Apple's M1 processors doubling the performance when used with the latest MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and Mac Mini. Naturally, we're most excited about the Luna Display's PC performance when used with Astro's excellent drawing software, Astropad Studio. Where Astro's solution excels is the seamless, virtually lag-free, and lightning-fast connection delivered via WIFI or USB thanks to their little dongle that does the heavy lifting.
Duet has also been offering this capability via hardware acceleration for quite some time. Just like the Mac version, the PC alternative of the Luna Display dongle comes in two unit options: USB-C or HDMI (Photo by Astro HQ)Īstro is not the only player in town providing PC users with the ability to turn an iPad into a wireless second display. After raising the necessary funding in yet another successful Kickstarter campaign, the new dongle, Luna Display for Windows, is now ready for public beta testers. In the past twelve months, the developers put a lot of effort into bringing their tech to Windows PC users' doorsteps. Seeking a resolution, Astro decided to extend their portfolio beyond the Mac.

With Apple offering their own mirroring solution baked right into their operating system, the small company has struggled to remain an appealing alternative for Mac users.
