An iPad is actually a larger version of the iPhone but people prefer it more for their commercial tasks. If you have an iPad, you likely draw things on it, create presentations, and so on. Although the screen on an iPad is really large and good for viewing items, sometimes you may want an even larger screen to view content, especially for viewing your presentations.
This is where the iPad mirroring comes into the picture. It allows you to show the contents of your iPad screen on a large screen of your computer. It should work on both Windows as well as Mac machines so you can use it regardless of what computer you have.
Screen Mirroring iPad to Mac with AirPlay
What makes screen mirroring possible and easier on an iPad is a feature called AirPlay. It is built right into your operating system so you do not need to download or install it on your device. Once you invoke the feature, it lets you stream your screen to any other AirPlay-enabled device.
Your Mac, on the other hand, does not have built-in support for AirPlay. However, that does not mean you cannot mirror your device to it. You are going to need to install an app on your Mac that will add the AirPlay support to it.
Let us take a look at how to AirPlay from an iPad to a Mac machine:
Step 1. Connect both your Mac and your iPad to the same WiFi network. This is the only way to use AirPlay and mirror your device’s screen.
Step 2. Head over to the Reflector website and download and install the app on your Mac. Launch the app but there is not anything to be configured. Just leave it as is.
Step 3. After installing the app, get back to your iPad and swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen. You will reveal the Control Center. Tap on the option that says Screen Mirroring in the list.

Step 4. The following screen lists all the AirPlay-enabled devices available on your network. Choose your Mac from the list by tapping on it.
You will instantly see your iPad being mirrored to your Mac machine. Any actions you perform on your iPad will instantly reflect on the screen of your Mac.

If you want to mirror your iPad screen to a PC that runs Windows, you are also going to need to install an app on your computer. Windows machines do not have AirPlay support by default but a third-party app should help you add it.

Step 1. Head over to the X-Mirage website and download and install the app on your PC. Launch the app when it is installed but you do not need to configure anything in it.
Step 2. Assuming both your PC and iPad are connected to the same WiFi network, swipe down from the top-right corner of your iPad to reveal Control Center. Tap on Screen Mirroring in the list and select X-Mirage.
Step 3. Select X-Mirage from the list of available devices.
You are all set. Your iPad screen will be quickly mirrored to your Windows PC. Thanks to X-Mirage, you can now view your iOS device’s contents on the large screen of your PC.
