      Hi,
      So I have an iPad Air that I’m planning to use as a monitor. It’s the version without a fingerprint-sensor home button, and gently used. Is it possible to use it as a monitor? What would I have to do to the iPad in order for it to work?
      Thanks.

        @ibuildmirror you have to run the magicmirror in serveronly mode on a device and access the mirror via safari on your ipad

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

          Thanks @strawberry-3-141 for the info. I saw this link: https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Use-Ios-Devices-As-a-Monitor-of-Raspberry-P/, do you think that it would work for the Magic Mirror?

            @ibuildmirror I think its a lot easier to do serveronly mode and use safari then you dont need any other dependencies

            Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
