What Splashtop Wired XDisplay Is Used For

Splashtop Wired XDisplay appears to be a utility app that lets an Android device work as an extra display for a Windows computer over a wired USB connection. Based on the metadata, it is meant for extending desktop space rather than replacing the computer screen, so it may be used when you want more room for open apps, documents, or reference materials while working.

Common use cases include keeping chat or social apps visible on one screen, showing side-by-side documents, viewing spreadsheets or presentations, and using the Android device as a portrait-oriented reading panel. The app description also suggests it may be helpful for creative or technical work such as previewing Photoshop or AutoCAD content, or interacting with Windows software through touch on the Android screen. The listed permissions, including storage and network access, fit a companion utility that needs to communicate with a desktop agent and handle display-related data. It is also described as supporting auto-rotation and adjustable display positioning, which may make it more practical on a phone used as a secondary monitor.

Common uses

  • Use an Android phone as an extended monitor for a Windows PC
  • Keep messaging, social feeds, or reference tools visible beside your main workspace
  • View Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files on a second screen
  • Read documents in portrait mode on the Android device
  • Use touch input to interact with Windows software on the connected device
  • Place the extra display above, below, or beside the computer screen
Best for:
second monitor use office multitasking document reading Windows desktop extension touch-based display
