Use iPhone as a Second Monitor for PC via USB
0If you're looking to expand your screen space without investing in a new monitor, this video walks you through how to use your iPhone as a second monitor for your PC via USB or Wi-Fi. This setup is especially helpful for multitasking, video editing, coding, or keeping communication apps open while working on your main screen. The process is straightforward and can be done using popular apps like Duet Display or iDisplay.
To begin, you’ll need to choose between Duet Display or iDisplay—both are available in the App Store for iPhone users. These apps are designed to convert your iPhone into a fully functional second display for either Mac or Windows computers. After selecting the app, download it on your iPhone. Then, head over to the official website of the app you selected and download the corresponding desktop version for your operating system—either macOS or Windows. Some apps may require a small fee or offer a free trial period, such as Duet Display's 7-day trial before a purchase.
Once the desktop app is downloaded, run the installer and complete the setup. After that, open the app on both your PC and iPhone. You can connect your iPhone to your computer using a USB cable for a faster and more stable experience, or connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network if you prefer a wireless setup.
Next, right-click on your desktop and go to "Display settings." Your iPhone will now appear as a second monitor. You can drag windows to it, adjust screen orientation, resolution, and choose how you want to use the extended display—whether to duplicate your screen or extend it.
This tutorial offers a quick and effective way to maximize productivity using tools you already have.
