I know you can use Sidecar to make your iPad a second screen for the Mac - but is there any way to go the other way around? (to make my mac a second display for my iPad)? I have apps where I mainly draw using apple pencil, but would like the ease of typing with the macbook.
Thanks in advance for any help!
iPad Pro, 14

It isn’t possible to do the reverse, i.e., extend the iPad display to another computer. You can, however, use iPad’s mirroring function to display a replica of the iPad screen on a TV or external monitor - using either AirPlay or over an HDMI connection.
