After struggling it finally worked with my Windows7 PC usinng usb connection. Suddenly they remove usb option. In my office we have separate WiFi for PC and BYOD(which is tablet). This app doesn't work when devices are connected to differen APs. Without usb it is useless for me now

W70%
by W####:

Not worth it. Have problems when extending from Mac, can't see the mouse pointer so it's useless for me. Don't have the time to submit detailed support request, was hoping it would just work. Also seems the ports are blocked on most networks (at work for example) anyway, so in general I cant even connect.

L70%
by L####:

Did not work for a long long time on win10, but it's working now. There is still a problem with uninstalling iDisplay. It will not do a clean uninstall on the PC. I ran DDU after uninstalling iDisplay and it still showed iDisplay being active. It's a huge pain to remove it completely.

I am waiting patiently for usb support between android and macos. That was originally the reason I bought the full version but it has been about 6 months since you are saying that it will in one of our next releases. This is scamming. You have released over 5 releases since then. I am sorry but stop scamming customers. Please announce a date or i am reporting you to google for scamming users by giving out false promises.

I love this app, but since I upgraded to windows 10 it hasn't worked. Hoping for official support for it soon. Edit 10-8-2017: appears to have support for Windows 10 now. Still not perfect, but it comes in handy.

It's really flakey and unreliable over WiFi. I bought hoping the USB connection would help but it seems it was removed from the Android version and have been waiting for a long time for it to come back.. until then, this really isn't usable.

Complete and total junk. Give me my money back.

I have used idisplay successfully for years with windows 10 and Android kitkat (Samsung) on Wi-Fi. I just bought a new lenovo tab 4 8. No problems extending display after upgrading PC version of idisplay.

Don't purchase for connections between Macbook and Android tablet, App doesn't work AT ALL. Tried contacting developer for refund and they have ignored my emails. @iDisplay — please get in touch with me.

Glitchy and slow. Used a free app and had leas isues. Also could not run media player on Android screen. Crashed everything when I drug app over.

Compré e instalé la aplicación en mi Samsung Galaxy Note 8 para utilizarla con mi Macbook Air, ambos se reconocen, pero al momento de ejecutar la aplicación se cierra automáticamente con el error "Desafortunadamente la aplicación se ha detenido". Y tampoco me permite solicitar la devolución del pago. No funciona, no pierdan su dinero por favor.

Cannot extend screens on my pc running on Windows 8.1 therefore app is useless and would like a refund.

U70%
by U####:

Terrible and waste of money. Android screen lagtime is ridiculous and renders the information useless. Very disappointed and I will be asking for a refund.

It worked before. But now crashed every time on connecting devices. Reported many tmes but no response.

Simply can't get it to work

I am running the app on a Nexus 7 1 Gen. Since Idisplay do not support USB on Android I have to run it over wifi. For that it works really well! But there is lag which is annoying. I'm looking forward to the update that enables connection over usb

U70%
by U####:

Being able to add my 18.6" Galaxy View as a touchscreen for my desktop Windows 10 PC, has given me the best of both worlds. Effectively turning my tablet into a windows touchscreen. I don't find the wifi delay that annoying. Wired will be a nice option.

by U####:

App is working good, BUT it has some interference with my bluetooth mouse. When I stop to move the mouse and I start to move it again, it is frozen for about 10 sec. And next starts to move again. I appreciate if you can fix this. I am using Windows 10

U70%
by U####:

Absolutely waste of money. It's never worked and I asked support for help and they said this problem would be fixed soon. I asked when but had no answer and that was six months ago and it's still not fixed! Don't buy it!

U70%

Bought it 2 weeks ago, has never worked once. Contacted support the first day and never have received a response. Junk, but it sounds good...if it worked. Manual setup and auto neither one succeeds.

U70%
by U####:

It works. You just have to tinker with the preferences and see what works for you. The problem with my tab is that when it has been set on landscape when the connection is triggered, it still shows a portrait projection, i have to turn my tab to portrait THEN landscape for it to work properly.

your app stopped unfortunately and i can not use. And I charged twice for this app. my money was still drawn from my bank account twice. why? pls explain. I want my money back. pls reply me.

Z70%
by Z####:

Terrible!! Paid for this app, and have never been able to use it, been 3 days, messaged support... Seems like they have taken their payment and not want to help! Still no reply And to think, if this app worked well on my s8+ I would have went ahead and spent the 10gbp to get it on iPad pro as well... Will look at alternatives!! Terrible app with worse support!! Avoid!!

U70%

I like it. Just wondering: when is USB connectivity coming back? Even though it works well for me wirelessly, I really want USB connectivity.

E70%
by E####:

Probably a bad call from my side to purchase an app with such bad reviews. Downloaded app on android phone but unfortunately the app on my laptop with windows 10 just wouldn't install (or the phone doesn't connect for other reasons?!). The support center kept giving me unhelpful advise and eventually just stopped replying at once, leaving this app as a completely waste of money! I want my money back

by U####:

I bought this app in order to connect my tablet to the PC and it works. Sadly wifi has an obvious delay, which makes working on it really hard. USB does not work, which they say to fix soon since 8 months now.

U70%
by U####:

Still waiting on that USB function. WiFi is just too unreliable on its own. It's why I bought the app rather than using a free option that's WiFi only

U70%

Can't connect!IP ,port and PC name are correct WiFi ok but it says error over over again.never saw prompt msg on the PC app.money throwed away for nothing

Customer support doesn't actually appear to exist. On my devices additional screen mode doesn't work.

Still waiting for the usb option...

C70%

Perfect for desktop extension with Android! I love it!

U70%
by U####:

Was charged twice for the app, the first time it automatically cancelled the purchase by itself for unknown reasons, so I had to purchase it again as confirmed by my email, however, the money was still drawn from my bank account twice. Edit: Google seems to have corrected the issue on their end and I've changed my review as a result. Product works as described and despite the removal of USB connection, input lag is tolerable for web browsing etc. Will go to 5 stars upon the inclusion of USB connection.

S70%
by S####:

I get these really ugly bars on the sides of my samsung note 10.1. These really annoy me and I cant seem to find a way to fix it. Is there a custom resolution function or a way to make it extend to the sides of my tablet without ruining the entire thing?

G70%
by G####:

Just installed it and it works well. I connected my mac book air to my android tablet and everything works. I even watched a video over it. It was a bit jumpy on large resolutions but turning on scaling seemed to help. Great app!
