After a highly successful Kickstarter campaign, Astro HQ has now made its Luna Display that transforms iPads into a second display for your Mac available to all consumers.

Astro HQ announced the news today in a press release.

We got an early hands-on looks at Luna Display last year and were impressed, finding it to be a better option than solutions like Duet Display.

Luna Display Highlights:

  • Sets Up in Seconds: Simply plug Luna into your Mac, connect your devices to the same WiFi network, and launch the free app. Your Mac will automatically recognize your iPad as a second display.
  • Connects Over WiFi: Luna was designed to work wirelessly over your existing WiFi network. If WiFi is unavailable, connection over USB is also a reliable alternative.
  • Lightning Fast & Crystal Clear: Luna Display runs on our proprietary LIQUID Technology, which guarantees crystal clear image quality, reliable performance, and wireless flexibility.
  • Fully Apple Compatible: Luna acts as a complete extension to your Mac, with full support for external keyboards, Apple Pencil, and touch interactions. It literally turns your Mac into a touchable device.
  • Works with Astropad: Luna fully integrates with Astropad, our drawing software that turns the iPad into a graphics tablet for Mac.

Luna Display is available in a USB-C or Mini DisplayPort model and works with iOS 9.1 and later. As for hardware requirements, it is compatible with any iPad mini, iPad 2 and later, and all iPad Pro models, while working with most 2012 and later Macs.

Luna Display sells for $80 and is available now direct from Astro HQ.
