How to connect an iPad to a Nintendo Switch for a bigger screen
A feature in iPadOS 17 enables iPads to work with USB-C capture cards. Here's how to use the feature to make your large-screen iPad work as an external monitor for your Nintendo Switch.
This would be great while on vacation.

I actually could see myself get an iPad now.
Sometimes I travel light and just bring my steam deck as a laptop. But for certain tasks and local multiplayer player games the screen is to small especially with it being a controller.
Then prop up an ipad and suddenly I have a 10 inch(I don’t know the size) screen.
Android tablets are much much better for this. See super display
Super Display only seem to work if you get windows and dual boot. Seems to be 0 Linux support because of hw acceleration. Bummer. Thanks for the tip though!
Deskreen seems to do similar for Linux if mirroring a display. To do multi desktop it appears you need to have a virtual display adapter to make it work
That program looks amazing!
Sadly it is only windows only while I prefer to keep my steam deck Linux.

That and as a computing device, the iPad’s battery life is second to none. My high end laptop meant for graphics and GIS lasts maybe an hour on battery. The iPad lasts half a day if not more with straight use.
Yeah exactly. I would not buy an external display as 80% of the time it would be useless.
But an iPad I could actually use for other things then just screen mirror. Especially with that battery life.
