Mirror iPad to PC

[e-class]

Hi,

 

Any suggestions on how to mirror an iPad to a PC

The teacher PCs are connected to a projector so the teachers want to show the iPad on the projector.

So am thinking, if I can get the iPad to mirror to the PC it should show on the projector.

I've had a quick look and found some apps:

LetsView

APowerMirror

LonelyScreen (although some reports that it's a dodgy bit of software).

 

Thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas please?

 

Thanks

We use AirServer...fairly cheap and very reliable.

 

EDIT: Worth mentioning you can also use Google Cast so if pupils have Chromebooks they can mirror these too.

Can also vouch for AirServer

We've had some success with Reflector in the past.

We moved from Reflector to Airserver a few years ago.

we use airserver too - personally dont have much experiance with it but teachers found it is great! - because they were on separate vLANS (laptops and iPads) we setup a ubuntu bonjour reflector that stradled the two.

Thanks everyone, looks like Airserver is the way to go

Probably worth noting that usually with each new IOS big update, you need to update Air Server on the machines.

Just the thread I was looking for, can Airserver have multiple connections?

 

This says you can but I've not tested it: https://support.airserver.com/support/solutions/articles/43000512437-how-can-i-show-multiple-devices-in-airserver-

Yes it does you can have up to 4 iPad screens at once but this will depend on bandwidth for your wifi in the classroom.
