User Reviews

Users praise Duet Air as a convenient way to turn an iPad into a high-quality second monitor with low latency, and for teleprompter/mirror use; many also call it a solid Sidecar-like option for PC↔iOS. However, reviews repeatedly flag stability problems (crashes, disconnects), plus a costly, subscription-heavy licensing model and mixed wireless connectivity. Audio sharing often doesn’t work, and updates can introduce new issues. When it runs smoothly, it’s powerful, but recurring reliability and pricing concerns limit its appeal.

Pros

Turns the iPad into a high-quality second monitor / mirror display for PC/Mac, with good image quality and low latency (especially when wired).
Useful for teleprompter use thanks to mirror/second-screen functionality.
Serves as a strong Sidecar alternative for PC↔iOS, boosting productivity.
Performs well when it’s working, with crisp visuals and low latency.

Cons

Frequent crashes and reliability problems; app often stops working or disconnects.
High price and confusing licensing; per-device purchases and subscription; difficult to cancel or obtain refunds.
Connectivity issues, especially with wireless setups; occasional failures to connect or maintain a connection.
Audio sharing feature does not work in some cases.
Performance and behavior vary across updates; newer versions can break compatibility or connectivity.

Completely crashed my mini's external display while sharing to the ipad. The iphone app is useless. Great idea, and when it worked once it was kinda cool in theory but I'd like to be able to command tab from ipad keyboard while having the duet app open but instead the command tab remains part of the IOS session not the OSX shared session.

I say this on my computer and say how expensive the download was but the fact that not only do you need to BUY it for your computer you then need to BUY IT AGAIN for your iPad, extremely predatory and not worth how much they charge.

Works great most of the time for me, but for some reason on ipad 10.9 inch, sometimes when im using a bluetooth mouse I cant touch in some areas, keyboard wont fully work when i enter in my pc apps most of the time. Its weird. Other remote apps work just fine, but lack the convenience features like full screen that this has.
