BetterCast Display

Requires a Mac. BetterCast Display is a receiver: it shows your Mac's screen on this device. You must install the free BetterCast Sender app on a Mac (bettercast.online) and have both devices on the same Wi-Fi network.

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a high-performance wireless display for your Mac.

BetterCast streams your Mac screen to your iOS device with hardware-level encoding for near-zero latency at 60 FPS. Use it as a portable second monitor, a mirror for presentations, or a dedicated preview display — all without cables, dongles, or paid subscriptions.
