The application / software Spacedesk allows you to connect your computer to your Android device to transmit the display and therefore make a screen extension without any wires! In addition, the extended screen is recognized as a touch screen by the PC!

Offered for free on the official website, in its 32 or 64-bit version, Spacedesk is a simple software to install, you have nothing else to do to extend your screen on the PC, it does not present itself as a software to launch.

Once installed, click on the three small dots at the top right then open the settings (Settings). Now adjust the display settings that are offered to you, namely the display quality, the color quality and the screen resolution. A check box allows you to define whether or not you want to use this screen as a touch screen. If the option is activated, you will then be able to move the mouse and click on the screen with your finger. This option can be a plus if you want to draw on your PC.
