SideDisplay for macOS v1.11.0

by

Hey everyone! We just shipped v1.11.0 for macOS.

No more password prompt every session

This is the big quality-of-life fix. Approve SideDisplay once under System Settings > General > Login Items & Extensions (under Background App Activity), and starting and stopping just works from then on. No more entering your password every time you connect. (If you'd rather not approve it, nothing changes and you'll be asked for the password as before.)

Better DNS handling

SideDisplay now uses only your Mac's own DNS servers, so setups with corporate, school, or custom DNS work more reliably.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed screen sharing occasionally failing to start with a "virtual display not found" error

  • Fixed "Share my internet" not working on IPv6-only cellular connections

Also includes richer diagnostics for display and network start-up issues, which makes troubleshooting a lot easier.

Update is available now. Let us know how it works for you!
