Luna is a smart hardware hack that “tricks” macOS that there is a second monitor present and then the iPad image is “mirrored” from that virtual monitor - esentially creating a separate display on the iPad.
#Astropad studio vs standard pro
Īm I understanding this right - could you take an image you're working on and drag it over to the iPad Pro display and draw on it with the Apple Pencil? (I mean, assuming the app supports that?)Just with the app, the iPad mirrors your Mac’s screen and, yes, you can draw on it great. Īstropad Studio, which costs $11.99 per month for syncing and monthly feature updates, is free to download initially. Support will cease at the end of 2018 to allow Astropad to focus on optimizing its apps for the Apple Pencil.Īstropad Standard can be downloaded from the App Store for $29.99. The company says that third-party styluses deliver poor performance compared to Apple Pencil and create engineering complexities.Īstropad no longer recommends third-party styluses for artists. The Luna Display adapter plugs into a Mac using Mini DisplayPort or USB-C, and then after downloading the app, the Luna Display serves as an extension of the Mac, letting Mac content be accessed directly from an iPad.īoth of the Astropad apps now support Luna Display, and the Luna Display itself can be pre-ordered from the Luna Display website for $69.99.Īstropad also announced today that it is discontinuing all support for third-party styluses.
Introduced as a Kickstarter project last year, the Luna Display is designed to turn any iPad into a wireless second display for the Mac.Īstropad alone mirrors the Mac display, but Luna Display is designed to extend the Mac display rather than simply mirror it. Astropad today introduced new updates for both its Astropad Studio and Astropad Standard apps, bringing support for the Luna Display adapter, which is also now available for pre-order.
