I can’t compare the performance and usage of Astropad and Duet Pro, because I’ve only used Astropad. If you want to connect wirelessly you have to use Astropad, but for best performance you’ll want to connect with a cable anyway.If you don’t like subscription pricing, you have to use Astropad (but not Astropad Studio, which does require a subscription).

If you use a Windows PC, you have to use Duet Pro because Astropad only works with Macs.If you want to use Duet Pro, you have to own an iPad Pro and an Apple Pencil.You can draw some conclusions from that table: Like Duet Pro, Astropad Studio is available by subscription, but you can still pay just once for the Astropad app and use its base feature set without an Astropad Studio subscription.) ( Update: In January 2017, Astropad announced Astropad Studio, a premium level that includes better performance and additional features. Most of all, you’ll want to pay attention to the hardware they support and their pricing models. But beyond that, they have more differences than you might think. ( Update: In December 2016, Duet Display and Duet Pro added the ability to let an iPad display the Touch Bar when connected to a Mac running macOS 10.12 Sierra.)ĭuet Pro and Astropad both use an iOS app that communicates with a companion application that you run on your computer.

If you’re deciding which one to use, you’ll need to know the important differences between them.ĭuet Pro started out as Duet Display, which lets a Mac or PC use an iPad or iPhone as an additional Mac display. Duet Pro adds support for advanced stylus features such as pressure and angle, bringing it into direct competition with Astropad.
These solutions display desktop applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator on an iPad, letting you use a stylus on the iPad display to draw or paint directly on the desktop document.īoth Astropad and Duet Pro are much less expensive than a Wacom Cintiq…if you already own an iPad. If you’ve wanted to use a mobile tablet as a Wacom Cintiq-like graphics input device for your computer, for a long time Astropad was the app that many turned to (a company called Avatron also offers Air Display for iOS and Air Stylus for Android).
