    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.

    This is actually a solid suggestion. Android still feels limited when it comes to proper multi-display workflows compared to desktop setups. Even simple apps struggle to scale well across two screens without glitches. I’ve noticed similar behavior when testing different Android tools; some lightweight apps discussed here https://bombituppro.com/ highlight how optimization really matters for smooth performance. If developers focus more on stability and adaptive UI, dual display support could become genuinely useful rather than experimental.
