ScreenCommand
Second Screen
$4.99
Desktop-class browsing on your monitor or TV from iPad or iPhone, even on a non-M iPad. Your device becomes the trackpad and keyboard. Wired USB-C or AirPlay. Pay once.
Turn your iPad or iPhone and an external monitor or TV into a desktop browsing workstation, even on a non-M iPad, where iPadOS extended display isn't available.
The big screen gets a full desktop-class browser. Your iPad or iPhone becomes the trackpad and keyboard: 8 cursor styles, up to 12 persistent tabs, YouTube quality up to 4K, and Netflix and other streaming over a cable. Pay once, no subscription.
IMPORTANT: REQUIRES AN EXTERNAL MONITOR OR TV. ScreenCommand runs the browser on an external display connected over USB-C (or a USB-C-to-HDMI/DisplayPort adapter) or via AirPlay to an Apple TV, and your iPad or iPhone becomes the trackpad and control center. Without a display connected, the app opens to a "Connect External Monitor" setup screen. There is no standalone on-device browsing mode.
STREAMING ON THE BIG SCREEN: Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Paramount+, Peacock and other streaming services play on the TV over a USB-C cable. YouTube, Vimeo, and other web video play over a cable or AirPlay.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
ScreenCommand 1.2 runs on iPhone, and plays Netflix and other streaming services over a cable.
• Use it on iPhone: connect to a monitor or TV, or AirPlay to an Apple TV, and your iPhone becomes the trackpad and keyboard. A cable needs an iPhone with USB-C video out (iPhone 15 or later, except iPhone 16e, iPhone 17e and iPhone Air).
• Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Paramount+, Peacock and other streaming services now play on the TV over a USB-C cable.
• Typing into sign-in forms, like Netflix's, now registers. Before, the text could vanish when you moved to the next field.
• Controls made for a phone: in portrait they stack above the trackpad, in landscape they sit beside it. The address bar gets its own row.
• A new iPhone keyboard layout, with Tab, .com, paste and the arrow keys on a slim row of their own.
• One purchase covers iPhone and iPad.
• On an 11-inch or smaller iPad held in portrait, the controls now fit the screen instead of running off its edge.
• The walkthrough no longer skips its steps on saving a page and opening your favorites.
