I can't mirror or connect ipad to pc wirelessly on windows 11
You can try the free spacedesk app for mirroring iPad to pc wirelessly. It is a powerful and popular software solution that effectively turns your iPad into a wireless second monitor for your Windows PC . It works by installing a "driver" (server) on your Windows machine and a "viewer" (client) app on your iPad, which then communicate over your local Wi-Fi network.
What makes spacedesk particularly appealing is that it is completely free for personal, non-commercial use and offers robust functionality, allowing you to either mirror your main display or extend your Windows desktop, giving you valuable extra screen real estate for multitasking
To connect ipad to pc wirelessly on windows 11, download the "spacedesk Driver for Windows" . Run the installer on your PC. Once installed, you'll find the spacedesk icon in your system tray, indicating the server is running.
On your iPad, open the App Store, search for the official "spacedesk" app, and install it.
Ensure both your Windows 11 PC and your iPad are connected to the same Wi-Fi network . For the best performance, a 5 GHz network is recommended.
Open the spacedesk app on your iPad. It will automatically scan the network and display your computer's name. Tap on it to initiate the connection. After a few seconds, your Windows desktop should appear on your iPad.
By default, your iPad might just mirror your main screen. To use it as a true extended monitor, right-click on your Windows desktop, go to Display settings, scroll down to "Multiple displays," and select "Extend these displays" . You can also drag the display rectangles here to match the physical arrangement of your monitors
