About Simple Display App

This app is a simple app to display externally input video supported from iPadOS 17. It is easy to use! Just launch the app and connect a UVC-compatible device such as an HDMI capture or webcam to the iPad's USB-C port! Until now, using an iPad as a mobile monitor with HDMI input support required an expensive dedicated input accessory, but now all you need is an iPad and a generic HDMI capture! It has the minimum necessary features such as pinch-in magnification of video, SplitView and Stage Manager support. Audio can also be played in the background. Requires an iPad with a USB-C port and an update to iPad OS 17 or later. This product cannot be used with iPads equipped with a Lightning port. The HDMI port on USB-C hubs and other devices is for output only and cannot be used. *This app does not have a recording function at this time, but it is possible to use screenshots or screen recordings instead. *This app uses Google Firebase Analytics to monitor usage.
