User Reviews

Yam Display Free effectively turns older iPads into a usable second monitor with more settings than Sidecar and is easy to install. It’s praised for reviving legacy hardware and offering a strong free option with good performance. However, users repeatedly note a 7-minute free-version limit and frequent, intrusive prompts to rate or purchase, which can interrupt use and cause screen disruption. Despite the annoyances, many see upgrading as worth it and view the app as a solid, affordable sidecar alternative for older devices.

Pros

Turns an old iPad into a usable second monitor, with more settings than Sidecar.
Very easy to install and use.
Great performance and smooth operation, especially on older hardware.
Revives old devices (iPad 2/3) and makes them useful again as a second monitor.
Widely praised as a free option that competes with paid sidecar solutions.

Cons

7-minute time limit on the free version, causing frequent disconnections.
Frequent, intrusive prompts to rate or buy, disrupting workflow.
Pop-ups can cover or obscure the screen, making it harder to focus or watch content while using the app.
