I have an iPad Air 3. I want to upgrade to an M1 device. But I got an idea of buying a Mac mini M1 since it's cheaper and can run iOS apps and use my iPad as the monitor with the help of Luna display touch and use luma fusion. By this way I can also use the Mac also if needed for any other purpose. What do u think??

Hi, great video, really cool to see that this works so well! Wondering if you think it is good enough to replace a dedicated drawing tablet (ie Wacom) for apps like Photoshop, Procreate and Clip Studio?

When you were on teleprompter mode, were you connected on the call through the ipad? Or were you connected on the device you had the iPad connected to?

Great video! Would love to know what the pencil jitter is like?

Thanks for the video! I've been looking for an optimal low latency setup.
How do you keep the ipad charged when using a wired connection? Does the wired connection give the ipad more power than it takes?

[josephcouteau]

how usable is the apple pencil without the astropad app(just lunadisplay on the ipad connected? for example with pencil pressure sensitivity, tilt, consistency?)? Thanks for sharing this original content out there btw! <3

Did you notice any blurriness? That's an issue I currently have with Astropad Studio.

Does the display support the Magic Keyboard?

Great video thanks. I have been using just Astropad with a wired connection and find it quite laggy when drawing. Does Luna improve the lag?

Sidecar in 2023 is 1000 times better than Luna display
