Yam Air

Very smooth

The developers solved my problem with the app quickly. I recommend!

Por favor, deu nova utilidade ao meu antigo iPad 2 com iOS 9.3.5, nunca deixem de funcionar nele 🥺

Slowly, slowly, slowly. Really would love to get my money back!

I’ve been usimg it for 2 days now. Super easy to setup, auto connects pretty fast. Works on really old ios versions. I’m using my old ipad 2 as a 10” display. Great app for a fantastic price. Totally worth it.

Works better and smoother than Duet app and doesn’t require a subscription.

For me it works as expected! I could revive an old iPad 2 (yeap, it’s still alive) that I couldn’t use not even to navigate through Safari. Now it is a third monitor that I use to play YouTube or to keep Figma open. It’s cool that it’s not laggy. I bought both Air and Plugged apps and I really think the Air works better (I don’t get why).

This app is probably one of the best duet alternatives ever. I downloaded this version because 1. The free version has a cap of 7 minutes every time you connect so you have to reconnect. 2. The wired (non-free/regular) version is 8 dollars and the air version is only 4 dollars. I thought this was going to be great, and it was, but it’s very laggy, and sometimes it bugs out.. for example: 1: sometimes the screen goes black and it just shows and tracks the movements of the Mac cursor. To get it to work again, I have to close the app and open it again. 2: It’s just laggy in general. I don’t know if it is a problem with my Mac, or if there is something the devs can fix. That’s my whole review on this app. If the devs of this app see this, please try to fix the bugs I am having, that would be great!

If you haven’t already tried Sidecar, give it a try before buying this app since it’s free functionality built into may Macs/iPads. However, if you’re like me and experiencing constant freezing with Sidecar, Yam is god-sent. It works flawlessly and adds touchscreen functionality (beautiful). I also considered Duet, but ultimately went with Yam since it’s a one-time fee versus subscription. So pleased!!

Using it on my old Mac Mini/Mojave (2010) delivers a poor performance with quite some lag … Using it on my MacBookpro (2016) / Big Sur works fine and without any delay or lag. As you can use your fingers on the iPad to move stuff, guess a virtual keyboard would be nice?
