AURGA Viewer: Wireless Display

I bought this to help troubleshoot IT issues in cases where I didn’t have a monitor handy. Aurga looks like it has potential, but it is far too temperamental at the moment to be very useful. It’s a bit tricky to get going and once you do, functions like trackpad and BIOS access aren’t reliable at all. I often have to restart the app just to get basic functions to start responding.

Does not work at all, the device would not connect at all regardless

I work in IT and I impulse bought this device just to see whether this would be an interesting KVM option from my phone. While it works, I’m not sure this is terribly practical for most people. Initial setup was straightforward but the app continually crashed. I was eventually able to setup both WiFi and Bluetooth. it’s unclear whether Bluetooth or WiFi is better. I would assume WiFi but I think the app recommends Bluetooth. The app works for me and I was able to stream audio, video, and send mouse and keyboard input to my Windows PC with both the USB/HDMI plugged into my machine. Notably there was no multi-window support. I already am sending video output to a large display so when I connected the aurga it shows up as another display input. If your PC has multiple displays, the touch input may not be corresponding to the view being streamed to the aurga device. In my case I had to duplicate my display on the screen I wanted to control remotely since the touch input was only being sent to the primary display. I wasn’t able to get the mouse to move over to the second screen so this was the only workaround I could do. Latency wasn’t bad when things were working, but the application did crash on me several times while using it. When you relaunch the app, the stream restarts fairly quickly but it was still annoying. Audio quality was ok when I tried streaming from YouTube / Spotify, but occasionally there would be jitter and it would noticeably distort the audio. It’s noteworthy that on windows, the aurga device shows up as an audio output device, so if you wanted to listen to both local and remote stream that maybe a problem. I assume this is similar for other devices. Also maybe noteworthy, make sure you triple tap and then enable the keyboard and then the touch input to get the mouse to work as expected. It wasn’t intuitive that these are blocked by default until you enable those. I tested this on a Sony mirrorless camera as well and I was able to get remote video to send over. Not sure whether the mirrorless camera supports input via USB so I might be able to get that to work but it’s not terribly practical. All in all, I thought it was kinda interesting but I probably wouldn’t get it again. Hopefully firmware updates improve things more.

I suckered into this as a solution it won’t work. If your responsible shame on you.

I bought to use on my iPad, it will not recognise and input from keyboard or mouse or trackpad after performing the three finger gesture to enable touch. Support has not responded.

How do we get the lag fixed?

Almost two months later, same issues with no connection to wifi

Connected to Aurga Dongle successfully, but it never can successfully connect the device to any Wi-Fi no matter 2.4G or 5G. No direct method connect to tech or customer support as well. Feels like crowdfunded pieces of trash.

I recieve the message "AURGA Viewer quit unexpectedly."
