Spacedesk by datronicsoft Technology GmbH offers an option to extend your Windows desktop across additional screens. This tool functions as a Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) switch that enables control of a primary Windows PC using connected secondary devices.

With support for extension and duplication modes, Spacedesk turns a wide range of compatible devices running various operating systems into extra displays. This includes mobile operating systems and platforms with modern web browsers, broadening usage options considerably. It also supports stylus input, transforming touch-enabled devices into drawing tablets, and other powerful features, enabling dynamic, multi-screen video walls for various display configurations.

Flexible configurations

Spacedesk’s desktop extension feature lets you spread out your work across multiple screens, while its desktop duplication mode allows for straightforward screen mirroring. This dual approach provides both extended display and mirrored screen support, enabling you to customize how you manage multiple devices. Secondary devices become part of your desktop environment, providing a functional multi-monitor solution that stays closely integrated within the desktop ecosystem.

It includes a remote control feature that lets you operate your main PC directly from a connected device. This adds flexibility by turning devices like mobile phones or Surface tablets into portable control stations. It also incorporates drawing tablet functionality, enabling stylus support for touch-enabled devices. This integration allows for direct drawing input, offering a practical use case for creative workflows or note-taking on compatible tablets.

It expands display flexibility with its video wall feature. This setup allows you to arrange multiple connected devices into larger display configurations for digital signage or presentations. By combining various features like extension, duplication, remote control, and drawing tablet support, it provides a software-based KVM switch for extending your desktop and leveraging your devices’ displays. However, it doesn’t include advanced display calibration.

Bottom Line

Practical display extension

Spacedesk extends and mirrors desktop content on other devices. It acts as a  Keyboard Video Mouse (KVM) switch and a simple remote control option without unnecessary complexity. However, it doesn’t include advanced display calibration and does not handle tasks beyond its display extension and control capabilities.
