Hey Product Hunt šŸ‘‹ I'm excited to share Pihu Display with you today! The idea came from a simple frustration: I wanted to use my Android tablet as a second monitor for my Mac, but every solution I tried felt more complicated than it should be. Most required Wi-Fi, had noticeable latency, needed multiple setup steps, or came with a subscription. I kept thinking: "Why can't I just plug my Android device into my Mac and use it as an extra screen?" So I started building Pihu Display. Pihu Display lets you turn an Android phone or tablet into a second display for macOS using a USB connection. The goal is to make the experience fast, simple, and accessible for anyone who already owns an Android device. Some things I'm focusing on: ⚔ Low-latency performance šŸ“± Support for Android phones and tablets šŸ–„ļø Extra screen space for productivity šŸ”’ Local connection with no cloud dependency šŸ’ø Free and open source Whether you're a developer, student, designer, or remote worker, I'd love to hear how you would use it and what features you'd like to see next. Thank you for checking out Pihu Display and for any feedback, suggestions, bug reports, or feature requests. I'll be here all day answering questions! šŸš€
