I have two #iPadPro models: 1st (①) and 2nd (②) gen. ① is now mainly a second monitor (#DuetDisplay).

Today, I wanted to take notes (#Notability) while reading on ②. I usually use split screen, but thought, why not try it with ①?

Turns out I like writing much better on ①!

Without a camera bump I don't need a case, so it's very thin. The thick edge on ② plus the necessary case is uncomfortable.

It's a real shame that ① is near obsolete, not accepting any OS after #iPadOS16.

A major reason I am comfortable with subscription pricing in software is that continuing development has a cost. Do you want new features, bug fixes, security patches, or even just continued compatibility as OS vendors change the underlying system? A subscription pays the developer to do that ongoing work.

But Duet's continuing development removed the feature I bought it for, and also seemed to be asking me to buy a second subscription.

I have now moved on to Splashtop's Wired XDisplay. It does not do wireless and is slightly more fiddly to set up, but it also does not require an account or sign-in of any kind and is a ONE-TIME purchase on the Play Store, and only $6.99 (there is also a free version but it can be used only ten minutes at a time).

I am normally a proponent of subscription pricing in software, but I'll take the better deal when I can.

Worse, after the update, I tried deleting and re-installing the app on the tablet I had been using, and installed it on a second to troubleshoot, and in both cases the app wouldn't advance past the subscription screen. I was signed into my account and according to the website and the iOS app, I have an active subscription, but in order to use it at all on Android I had to activate a trial for a second subscription that would charge me $48 in seven days.

To install Duet on the Fire, you’ll need to side-load or install the Play Store and Google services first.

Also, pro tip: on the web, Duet’s subscriptions (at least the ones you would want) are annual-pricing only, but if you subscribe from the iOS app, monthly plans are available. The iOS purchase screen is worded to imply that it will only work with the iPhone, but you are are actually purchasing a plan that will work with any device.
