To use an iOS device as a second monitor for your Windows PC, you can download the spacedesk Viewer app directly from the Apple App Store.

Connect: Ensure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, or connect them directly via USB cable (which offers the best performance and lowest latency).

The official Spacedesk team has hinted that they are working on a native M1/M2 iPad driver and potentially USB tethering support for iOS (currently, iOS clients are Wi-Fi only). If USB tethering arrives, the need for perfect Wi-Fi will vanish, making the App Store version even more attractive.

Legacy Devices: They are using an old iPad (like an iPad 2 or 3) that can no longer access the modern App Store or run the latest version of iOS.

Unlike hardware-based solutions (HDMI capture cards), Spacedesk works over your local network (LAN). It converts your Windows PC’s GPU output into a compressed video stream and sends it via TCP/IP to your client device.
