>If my theory is correct, we should soon be able to connect an iPhone to an HDMI capture card (such as the ones I covered in my iPadOS 17 review) via Apple’s adapter and an HDMI cable, connect the capture card to an iPad, and use a compatible app to see the iPhone’s display on your iPad. That could be used for screencasts, playing videos from an iPhone on the iPad’s display, or, better yet, play a videogame from the iPhone in a Stage Manager window on the iPad.

Connecting to an external monitor I can get, and it will be sweet.

The above (which is not some Apple recommendation, it's just the authors idea) is some whole new level of useless.

If you already have an iPad you can ...just use the iPad?


Any idea what is preventing Android phones from doing the same?
