Hi . I finally found the solution to broadcast cameras on the echoshow 15 through this phenomenal application. On the PC where the server is hosted I noticed that the expiry date is set for January 31, 2024. Can I purchase a license or is it free for personal use?
Hi @s-h-e-i-k-h,
I see, that could be the reason why your spacedesk Console is still displaying that error message.
Are you unable to install iTunes from the MS Store? if not,
Could you please try installing iTunes from the MS Store -> Run the iTunes app -> check your USB Cable iOS if it still displaying the message?
Also, please make sure to update your spacedek Driver to v2.1.13
Hi @Christian,
Thanks to your advice, the issue has been resolved successfully!
I truly appreciate it.
Regarding the keyboard, I have purchased a business license.
I will continue to make use of spacedesk from now on.
Hi @nag,
We’re glad to hear that it is now working on your side!
For your keyboard Issue, this is because of the keyboard update in earlier versions for security purposes. During network connection, you are now required to enable the encryption option spacedesk Console for keyboard inputs. You can use the encryption feature when you have an Android commercial or business license.
If you still wish to use it for free, you must connect your Android device to your Windows 11 laptop using a USB cable, or if you still want to use the keyboard via Wi-Fi, you need to purchase the business license for the Android viewer.
to summarize:
Keyboard in USB connection = allowed
Keyboard in Wi-Fi connection = not allowed without a business license.
Hi @nag,
Could you maybe check your LAN/WIFI option which can be seen at the bottom of spacedesk viewer connection page?
Could you you also make sure again if your primary machine and Android device is connected under the same Wifi network?
please refer to the attached screenshot for assistance.

Hi @s-h-e-i-k-h,
For clarification, after you clean install your windows, you only installed the Apple devices app from Microsoft store and not iTunes, is that right?
If your iTunes app is from the Microsoft Store, you must still open it for Spacedesk Console to detect it.
For your concern about the burn-in, we already forwarded this to our iOS developer. we will let you know once there is an update about this issue.
Hi, due to some problems with my previous windows, I clean-installed windows 11 23H2 version and then installed apple devices app from microsoft store (so there is no effects of iTunes on my windows). Then tried connecting my iPad to my pc and after windows auto-driver installation (windows updates) and some restarts, checked iPad connection with windows and everything was good. After that, downloaded and installed v.2.1.12 but still have previous problem with the “Apple Mobile Device Service/Process is not running. Please download and install iTunes.” message.
Today morning, tried to connect with USB again and client version of spacedesk on iPad could not recognize USB connection. So I turned off and on the “USB Cable iOS” option in spacedesk server app on windows, then I had the pop up on iPad and everything was fine.
So I think the bug still persist =D
———————
I also have an other issue on every versions from old to new one.
I’ve set windows (power plan) “turn off screen time out” on 3 minutes and “sleep timeout” on “never”.
After 3 minutes, my laptop screen goes black; but it’s still working. On my iPad I receive a message that says “connected – screen off” and the message is permanent until I move my mouse so my laptop screen is turned on again. I think in future I will have the burn-in problem on my iPad screen (the burn-in issue is a common problem in LCDs and you will see a shadow of some permanent elements of UI e.g. battery icon on status bar even you change the background). please add an option to the client spacedesk app to turn off this message, so it will be only a blank screen on second display and it will be healthier for LCDs and AMOLED displays.
——————–
thanks a lot for your excellent support.
Hi @nag,
Is there an error when you connect to your server wirelessly?
Do you see your server name/IP on your android viewer?
if not, please try to manually connect, just open the spacedesk App -> click the + sign -> then enter your server’s IP address.
Hi @darkathena,
for clarifications:
– usb android is working with usb cable 2.0
– usb android is working with usb cable 3.0 when inserted slowly
is this correct?
Could you please send us your diagnostic files again? this time, make sure to reproduce it using your 3.0 cables. just follow the steps thoroughly:
– open spacedesk Driver Console -> Diagnostics
– if Debug View is not available, please click the download button first
– switch Diagnostic Collection ON (make sure to click Yes in the User Account Control box to proceed)
– please reproduce the issue using the faulty cables
– switch Diagnostic Collection OFF

PS: Saving all information will take a few seconds, then please send us the whole folder which contains all the diagnostic logs collected.
Please right-click the folder -> Send to -> Compressed (zipped) folder, then attach the *.zip file in your next reply.
Hi @nag,
Could you please check the following?
– double check if both of your primary and secondary machines are connected within the same local area network
– see if spacedesk or C:\Program Files\datronicsoft\spacedesk\spacedeskService.exe is included in antivirus or firewall’s exception list. this is to allow spacedesk service to establish incoming and outgoing connections
– If you have VPN (Virtual Private Network) active in your machine, please disable it
– please make sure your wifi router has client isolation disabled
– check if your current Network profile in your primary machine is Public, if so, switch it to Private. you can navigate this options by going to Windows Settings -> Internet & Network
Hello,
Thank you for the wonderful app. Thanks to Spacedesk, I’ve had a great experience.
Suddenly, around 10 p.m. on February 18, 2024, Japan time, I found that while I can still connect via USB with my Android tablet, I’m unable to connect wirelessly.
I’ve confirmed that there are no issues with the firewall settings of my security software. Even after updating to the latest version and reinstalling the app for the secondary machine, the issue persists.
Could you please advise on the possible causes and solutions?
Best regards.
Hi @sbertin930,
Based on your SpacedeskDiag.txt, you are using Microsoft Basic Display, Please update your AMD/Intel/Nvidia graphics adapter to the latest version.

Hi @devildog8488,
Could you please open the Windows Display Settings on your primary machine then check for detached/greyed-out client. if there is, just attach it by selecting extend from the drop-down menu.
You can also refer to our CONFIGURATION AND SETTINGS
-> Windows Driver (Primary Machine) -> Desktop Extension or Desktop Duplication (mirror) Settings in Display Control Panel chapter in our manual –

Hi @user2003,
Could you please try uninstalling the old version first by following this chapter UNINSTALL ON WINDOWS PRIMARY MACHINE -> Troubleshooting Uninstall on our user manual
Link: https://manual.spacedesk.net/TroubleshootingUninstall.html
then try to install the latest version again.
use this Product code:
spacedesk_driver_Win_10_64_v1066.msi:{26EB1A9A-6F23-4AE4-8BD9-B43C3FA07550}
I used the program before and stopped using it for a while and now that I want to use it again when installing it asks me to update the driver but I get an error that I need the installation package for the spacedesk_driver_Win_10_64_v1066_BETA.msi
We mirror a Windows 11 laptop wirelessly to 4 Android Fire TVs, via MonitorsAnywhere & the Spacedesk app on those TVs. The laptop mirrors a Google Slide presentation to those TVs in full screen Slideshow mode. The remote controls for those TVs are used to scroll through the slide presentations via the directional controls on the remotes. However, upon updating the Spacedesk driver today to v2.1.11, the remotes can no longer scroll through those slides. The slides can be advanced via the laptop, but the remotes no longer work in this manner. Just to be clear, this functionality was working today right up until initiating the v2.1.11 driver update…this was the only change made, & now this specific remote functionality is dead.
Is there a reason why this would’ve happened? I’ve tried repairing the driver install, but the remotes still do not work. They were working on the previous Spacedesk driver version (2.0.8.x I believe, installed about a month ago). I can’t find a way to rollback the current version to that prior working version, nor can I find where to download any prior driver versions directly from Spacedesk.
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Win 11, Spacedesk 2.1.11, Samsung galaxy tab A with S pen, Android 8.1
Using power point 2007 (a bit old I know, but heavily customized and payed for)
The problem is when in the slide show on a projector, using the pen to write on the slides (on the tablet) the writing does not show on the projector, only on the presenter view, plus whenever I remove the pen away of the screen the slide turns to the next one.
I would like to be able to write and annotate on the projected slides and do the next/previous slide either by swiping or using the arrows on the presentation screen NOT by the pen touching the screen.
Appreciate your help.
As said, I can’t make that obnoxious window vanish. We can hide the connection window, but not that apparently. How and/or when will I be able to remove the obnoxious thing from my taskbar? Do I need the commercial version, or if I buy the commercial version am I stuck with a pop up saying I have the commercial version?
Hi @darkathena,
Could you please try the following:
– Uninstall spacedesk Driver
– Plug Android tablet with USB3.0 cable
– Check if there is still an error with the MTP, if none..
– install spacedesk driver then enable USB connection
Hi @sbertin930,
How do you connect your Android device? is it via USB or Wifi?
if it is via USB, could you please try unplugging your device -> turn off Android/iOS USB option in the Console -> turn on USB -> plug your device again.
since its a newly reinstalled windows 10, do you maybe have Nvidia ShadowPlay installed on your machine?
Could you please check for any incompatible software, just run the spacedesk Driver Console -> Diagnostics -> Incompatible Software Products. if there is, please uninstall or disable it and try again with spacedesk
if the above suggestion did not work, please send us the Diagnostic logs of this Issue.
Just follow the steps below:
– open spacedesk Driver Console -> Diagnostics
– if Debug View is not available, please click the download button first
– switch Diagnostic Collection ON (make sure to click Yes in the User Account Control box to proceed)
– reproduce the blackscreen issue.
– switch Diagnostic Collection OFF
– click Save All Information button (if a message box appears, just click No to proceed)
PS: Saving all information will take a few seconds, then please send us the whole folder which contains all the diagnostic logs collected.
Please right-click the folder -> Send to -> Compressed (zipped) folder, then attach the *.zip file in your next reply.
Hi @darkathena,
Thank you very much for sending the requested files.
“If I slowly insert the USB 3.0 TYPE-A, it can be recognized at this time, but the reason for this recognition is that slow insertion will be recognized as USB 2.0”
-What version is your USB port? the reason for this could be that while USB 2.0 ports are compatible with USB 3.0 it will still be limited at the transfer speed of your USB 2.0 port hence it is being recognized as 2.0
the real issue here is the non-working cable when spacedesk is plugged..
the text file DebugView.log is missing from the files you sent. did you make sure to reproduce the issue before you turn off the diagnostic collection?
Could you please send us the files again? this time, make sure to reproduce it using your 3.0 cables. just follow the steps provided on my previous reply.
Hi @dominic100,
unfortunately, you cannot use spacedesk to control your Ipad apps. you can only use your Ipad as an additional monitor/display of your Windows PC
Hi @kusada,
I see, we have forwarded this to our iOS developer, for the meantime, you can use a USB connection instead of Wi-Fi to connect your iOS viewer.
Please check the CONNECTING A NEW DISPLAY MONITOR OVER THE USB CABLE -> Direct USB Cable Connection ->iOS USB Cable Connection chapter in the user manual – https://manual.spacedesk.net/iOSUSBCableConnection.html
No. Black and white color has nothing to do with license.
It is because the BETA version expired. Please look at the post below:
Black and White Image: EXPIRY of BETA VERSIONS!
Hi @kusada,
since it’s a newly formatted phone, could you please go to settings -> privacy -> Local Network -> then make sure to enable the local network for spacedesk
Hi @sethmtraut,
Thank you very much, we look forward to your feedback.
it is also worth mentioning that the Current spacedesk’s touchscreen is only supported in the first spacedesk display, when you connect a 2nd (or multiple viewers) it will use mouse touch. could this be your issue? please note that this behavior is completely expected.
Hi, and thanks for the quick reply.
Ok, that’s disappointing, but not entirely unexpected, so I guess it’s on to plan B!
I’m thinking about installing Virtualbox on Linux, then installing Windows as a virtual OS, and putting Spacedesk on that.
Aside from the fact that it will probably be dog slow, can anybody see a fatal flaw in my plan?
Or, as an alternative, should plan B fail, do we collectively know of an alternative to Spacedesk *gasp* that runs on the Raspberry Pi?
I will ask the question on the Pi forum as well, just to cover my bases.
Thanks again,
John.
Hi @sethmtraut,
For clarifications, you have five hardwired monitors + two iPads (spacedesk) as monitors. two of the five monitors are touchscreen capable, is that right?
“will only recognize one at a time as a touch screen”
-could you try connecting iPad #1 together with the two touchscreens if the touchscreen is working? then disconnect and try iPad #2 if it is also working.
– in case one of them is not working, please try checking the input settings of the iOS viewer if the touch screen is enabled. just go to the gear icon below -> Input devices
“When I go to tablet PC settings and try to tell it which ones are touch screens it faults out before getting to all monitors”
-During the Tablet PC Settings, does it close when it’s time for the iPad monitor? Could you please try going through the iPad screen first?
-Also, could you try excluding some monitors, or even the other two touchscreens before doing the Tablet PC Settings?
– rebooting your iPads may also help
Good evening. I have 5 hardwired monitors (flight sim) two of them touch screen. I had previously had two ipads running via spacedesk as two additional monitors (both set up as touch screens as well). The computer somehow dumped these as touch screens and will only recognize one at a time as a touch screen (giving me 3/4 that I previously had). My sim is useless without all four monitors. When I go to tablet PC settings and try to tell it which ones are touch screens it faults out before getting to all monitors. Not sure what changed as it previously worked fine. How do i convince windows that both ipad monitors via spacedesk are touchscreens? Thank you for your help… V frustrated… Thanks!!!
Hi @sacco_belmonte,
Glad you made it work on your side!
We will now close this topic. In case you encounter any spacedesk-related issues, just let us know and we’ll be happy to assist you.
Hi @johnvella,
We haven’t tested this kind of setup with spacedesk. also, it seems like Raspberry Pi 4 is running on an ARM-based processor, current spacedesk Windows Driver and Viewers (except HTML5 viewer) don’t support ARM-based processors yet. so this setup might not work for now.
Hi,
I’ve got a 4th generation iPad, which I want to use as a second monitor.
I tried using my Spacedesk on my laptop, which runs Windows 11, as a first test, and that worked great, however…
I would really like to be able to use my Raspberry Pi 4 and, in an ideal world, connect the iPad via USB. The USB part is not vital, but it would be nice, as I wouldn’t rely on WiFi too use the iPad.
I can install Windows 11 or Android on the Pi, as well as Linux, but I was wondering whether anybody here had tried it, and if so, did it work?
Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance,
John.
Edit to add: I want to run Microsoft office, and there won’t be any gaming and minimal web browsing so speed shouldn’t be an issue.

Hello @spacedesk Christian, I wanted to report back that the new feature works great and I no longer get prompted by the IT application to enable USB. Thank you for the prompt resolution on this. This will save me a lot of headaches when I need to upgrade in the future.

USB connection works perfectly fine if I turn off Android USB mode in Spacedesk. I’ve tried re-installing Spacedesk on both Windows and Android devices (Pixel 7 and Lenovo tablet) with no success.
Hi @bandwagoner,
Could you please try plugging the cable using the other USB ports?
if the issue persists, maybe try to uninstall spacedesk -> plug USB cable -> then check if the issue will still happen.
That is fantastic news thank you. I don’t really understand the license as it’s written so I will have to get clear what it means before I buy anything.
The license is just per connection, correct? Or is there a limit as to how many different host devices you are allowed to use Spacedesk on as a host device, or the license is only for one single phone/device so you need another license to use a different phone/device to connect?
The wording just confuses me. I have 2 pc’s and a tablet and phone. As I understand it, I can have Spacedesk hosting on both pc’s but only one of my devices can connect at a time to any of the pc’s under a license right?
Thanks.
Hi @tims,
Display performance heavily depends on the network. Highest performance is achieved by cabled networks (e.g. Native USB, Ethernet).
To use the USB Cable Android option in the console, just follow the CONNECTING A NEW DISPLAY MONITOR OVER THE USB CABLE -> Direct USB Cable Connection ->Android USB Cable Connection chapter in the user manual – https://manual.spacedesk.net/AndroidUSBCableConnection.html
To improve the FPS rate during USB or Wifi connection, just go to settings -> Quality/Performance. currently, spacedesk offers 30 and 60fps
You can also change other settings to improve your performance during Wifi/Wireless Network connection.
For further information about improving display performance, please check the Instruction Manual chapter “Performance Tuning” https://manual.spacedesk.net/PERFORMANCETUNING.html
Hi @tims,
Could you maybe try installing the Amazon app store first from this link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/mas/get/amazonapp
then follow their installation steps -> sign in to your account -> search “spacedesk” in the search bar
Hi @tims,
Unfortunately, we do not hand out APKs individually.
As an alternative to Google Play Store, you can also try to download spacedesk for Android from the Amazon Store.
Download link to Amazon Store is available on our website’s download page – https://www.spacedesk.net/#download.
in the case of HTML5 viewer, please try clearing your browser’s cached files first in android device before accessing the HTML5 Viewer and then try again.
Hey spacedesk folks!
OK so I’ve got a… device. It’s a picture frame of sorts (nano-frames)… running android 7.1.2 (that I can’t upgrade).
The google play store doesn’t recognize the device at all, so I can’t install from there, and the html5 viewer in Brave browser gives an error about secure connections and SSL versions.
Is there an APK to install it that isn’t from shady APK sites?
I can get files onto the frame, and use a mouse and keyboard on the frame to poke around at internet sites and things and do slideshows of my files or online ones… but it’d make my whole process 10000x easier if I can get spacedesk on there and essentially use it as a second monitor from across the room.
Many thanks if there’s any solution! (I’m a dev so don’t be afraid to include like… usb debugging and various nonsense.)
Cheers,
T
