Dual Displays on Android App
Dual Displays on Android App
DisplayLink can already support mulitple USB displays connected on Android with the DisplayLink desktop app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.displaylink.desktop.demo&hl=en_GB
However Android does not have a concept of multiple displays like other OSes. As of Android Pie, a single app can use more than one screen, eg powerpoint uses the phone screen to show presenter notes, and the extended screen shows the presentation.
For DisplayLink to properly support dual displays on Android, like other OSes, changes would be needed to Android to support multiple displays.

Post of 2019? we are in 2025
Any update on supporting "Desktop Mode" on android connected to an external monitor (via a DisplayLink Dock)? Can you redo the "Presenter" app and enable the desktop mode rather than merely mirroring the phone screen?
This is a MUST feature if DisplayLink wants to stay current and stay in the market. -

Wow, the Dual Displays feature on Android apps looks really useful! It would make multitasking so much easier, allowing users to run two apps side by side without constantly switching screens. I’m curious how smoothly it works in real-world usage. I’d love to try it while playing games like Nova Patti, you can check it out here: https://novapatti.io/ for a fun experience.

I was searching for casinos with less payout drama when I stumbled across https://instantpayoutcasinos.net/ in a forum thread about Australian withdrawals. Decided to test a slot with sticky wilds, and to my surprise, after a small win, I cashed out within 10 minutes to my wallet. First time I didn’t have to chase support for two days.

Your note about Android’s limited multi-display handling reminded me how I sometimes look for something quick to unwind after dealing with tech setups like this. Recently I tried https://chicken-road.co.nz since it’s mentioned a lot here in New Zealand, and it turned out to be a simple crash-style game that doesn’t demand any configuration at all. A couple of short rounds were enough to reset my brain before returning to troubleshooting Android’s display quirks.
