Air Display
Air Display is a wireless and wired remote display utility that turns an iPad or iPhone into a secondary monitor for your Mac. The app consists of a companion iOS app and a free host application installed on the Mac itself. It supports multiple simultaneous connections (up to 4 iPads), USB and Wi-Fi connectivity, pressure-sensitive stylus input for applications like Photoshop and Motion, and full multi-touch gesture control. Air Display is widely used by designers, video editors, and productivity-focused users who need extra screen real estate without purchasing additional hardware.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionAir Display's Mac component is actively maintained by Avatron Software, with recent releases supporting modern macOS versions including Mojave and later. However, we cannot confirm from the available search results whether a native Apple Silicon build currently exists. Given that we are 28 months away from the September 2028 macOS 28 deadline when Rosetta 2 support ends, there is still time for Avatron to ship a native version. Visit avatron.com/support or check for updates within the Air Display host app itself (menubar icon → settings → Check for Updates) to confirm whether you are running the native or Intel build, and contact Avatron directly if you have concerns about Apple Silicon compatibility. The iOS companion app components are unaffected by Rosetta 2 removal since iOS apps do not rely on Rosetta.
