6個雙螢幕使用技巧,輕鬆提升效率:

1、節省切換視窗時間

多工處理最怕一直切換視窗。有了雙螢幕,你可以把不同程式或資料檔案分別在兩個螢幕上開啓,能讓畫面井然有序,不再手忙腳亂地找檔案,大幅節省來回切換的時間,讓作業空間更加整潔,有條理。

2、資料校對更清楚

在做文字或數據比對時,使用系統自帶的分割畫面功能常讓字變得太小、資料顯示不全,看得很吃力。利用雙螢幕,可以把兩個檔案各開在不同螢幕,字體維持正常大小、排版不亂,搭配修訂功能,更容易對照修改。

3、剪輯效率翻倍

剪影片時常需要邊找素材邊編輯?你可以將剪輯軟體放在主螢幕,第二螢幕開啓檔案或資源庫,就能一鍵快速拖拉素材,減少反覆切換,大大提高剪輯效率。也可以將第二螢幕作爲瀏覽區,主螢幕作爲工作區,畫面更大細節看的更清晰。

4、直式瀏覽更舒適

要看長條型的影片、文檔或程式碼?把你的平板雙螢幕直立擺放,無論看直式影片或瀏覽長篇文字都更舒適、省下滑動的時間。對於剪輯直屏短片的非常實用

5、邊查資料邊寫作

無論是寫論文、寫報告或編輯稿件,都少不了查資料。雙螢幕能讓你一邊開著資料來源、一邊寫作,不用不斷來回切換視窗,還可以無縫將所需資訊進行複製、粘貼,提高效率。

6、設計更精細

在做繪圖、修圖或影片編輯時,第二螢幕簡直是秘密武器!不論是放大細節檢視,或把 Photoshop、Premiere 的特定工具面板移到另一台螢幕,都能讓工作空間更大更靈活,用起來更順手。

Remote Monitoring & Maintenance for IT Teams Using DeskIn

In IT, there’s a universal truth: systems never break down when it’s convenient. It’s 3 AM. Your phone buzzes. A server just went rogue. The team’s halfway across the globe. And you’re under a blanket. That’s the reality of modern IT, distributed teams, hybrid work, and the need for always-on support.

The great news is, you do not need to be in the server room or burn the midnight oil keeping those systems running. The right remote monitoring & maintenance (RMM) solution gives you visibility into what's happening, enables you to resolve issues quickly, and even averts problems before they happen.

In this post, we explain the essence of RMM, why it has become so vital to IT teams today, and how it can assist you in managing ever-expanding systems in a secure, flexible as well as scalable manner from anywhere using DeskIn.

What is RMM?

Remote monitoring & maintenance, or RMM, is how IT teams can view and fix devices without being in the same room, or even country. You can remotely hop in there, spot what the problem is, and fix it in that location instead of walking right over someone’s desk in order to check why a PC is crawling.

What Does RMM Actually Do?

At its core, remote monitoring & maintenance is to keep your devices healthy and your users productive. It typically includes:

  • Monitoring system health: Get a live look at CPU load, RAM usage, disk space, and even how apps behave over time. If someone’s laptop is overheating because 47 Chrome tabs are open, you’ll know.

  • Detecting usage patterns:  Know what kind of alerts are being generated frequently and how systems/services are used, or misused, notice the pattern before it gets to your attention due to a production issue.

  • Performing updates and diagnostics remotely: Patch security holes, push software updates, and run checks without waiting for someone to bring their device into the office; you can handle it all in real time.

Who uses RMM?

  • IT helpdesks: Fix issues quickly without disrupting the user.

  • Enterprise IT teams: Manage thousands of devices across multiple sites with ease.

  • Managed Service Providers (MSPs): Deliver proactive support that keeps clients running smoothly.

In short, RMM transforms IT from reactive to proactive, letting teams maintain infrastructure without burning out or chasing tickets all day. And in 2025, with devices spread across homes, offices, co-working spaces, and even airports, remote monitoring & maintenance isn’t just helpful, it’s mission-critical.

Why Remote Monitoring Matters in 2025

The way we work has changed, permanently. Offices are optional, teams are global, and IT is expected to support everyone, everywhere, without skipping a beat. In this world, remote monitoring & maintenance isn’t just a convenience, it’s the glue holding modern work together.

Let’s break down why it’s more critical than ever in 2025.

1. The Remote and Hybrid Workforce Is Here to Stay

Back in the day, IT could stroll over with a USB stick and a screwdriver. Not anymore.

Now, your design lead works from a café in Seoul, your marketing team is spread across four cities, and your developer just hopped into a new time zone, again. Supporting this scattered crew means keeping eyes on every device, no matter where it’s plugged in.

That’s where remote monitoring & maintenance shines. It keeps systems visible, updated, and supported, whether users are at home, in the office, or somewhere in between.

2. Downtime Is Expensive

Every minute of downtime bleeds productivity, revenue, and trust. A laggy laptop during a client pitch, a frozen system mid-code deployment, those moments hurt.

With remote monitoring & maintenance, IT can act before trouble hits. You’re not waiting for someone to say, “Hey, something’s wrong.” You’ve already spotted the issue and fixed it before it derails the workday.

3. Real-Time Visibility Stops Bigger Problems

It’s the difference between noticing your car’s engine overheating while cruising on the highway or catching it in the driveway.

With real-time visibility, you can watch CPU spikes, memory leaks, overheating, or unusual activity as they happen. It’s like a live dashboard that lets you step in before small hiccups turn into full-scale crashes.

4. We Live in a Cross-Platform World

Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS — today’s work devices speak different languages, and your monitoring tools need to be fluent in all of them.

With solutions like remote desktop, you can manage them all from one place. Whether it’s a MacBook in a music studio, a Windows desktop in a data center, or a mobile device in the field, remote monitoring & maintenance keep them all connected, secure, and running at their peak.

DeskIn vs Duet Display: The Best Screen Extension Tool for 2025?

Ever feel like your laptop screen just isn’t cutting it anymore? Like you’re constantly flipping between tabs, resizing windows, and trying to squeeze too much into too little space? Whether you're editing videos, designing, or just trying to keep Slack, Zoom, and Notion open at once, having a second screen can seriously save your sanity.

That’s where tools like Duet Display come in. It’s been a popular pick for a while, letting you turn your iPad (or other devices) into a screen extender. Pretty handy, right? But here’s the thing: in 2025, we’ve got options. And if you’re the kind of person who wants more than “just works,” there’s a new name worth checking out — DeskIn.

It’s not just another Duet Display alternative; it’s a screen extender with muscle. Real-time performance, ultra-low latency, and even 4K60FPS streaming. Deskin is built for people who actually need speed and clarity, not just extra screen space.

So if you’re setting up a dual monitor rig for work, gaming, or both, let’s break it down: Duet Display vs DeskIn — who really wins the second screen game in 2025?

What Is Duet Display and How Does It Work?

Originally built by former Apple engineers, Duet Display is an app that transforms your iPad, iPhone, Android device, or even another computer into a wireless or wired screen extender for your Mac or Windows PC. It's designed to bring portable, dual-screen power to people who don't want to haul around an extra monitor.

Supported Platforms

  • macOS

  • Windows

  • iOS / iPadOS

  • Android

Key Features

  • Touch input and Apple Pencil support for interactive second-screen use

  • Basic stylus input for sketching or light creative work on an extended display

  • Share keyboard and mouse across two devices

  • Desktop-to-desktop screen extension

  • iOS mirroring (view your iPhone on your PC or Mac)

  • Headless mode for server control

  • A lightweight, portable monitor replacement — perfect for digital nomads

Limitations

  • Most advanced features are locked behind a paywall

  • Doesn’t support full-color accuracy (no 4:4:4 rendering)

  • Not optimized for gaming — no game controller passthrough or high-FPS streaming

Common Use Cases for Duet Display:

  • Students or remote workers needing a budget-friendly dual monitor setup

  • Designers doing light sketching with Apple Pencil

  • Travelers who want a second screen without packing an extra display

  • Tech-savvy users wanting to control multiple machines from one device

Duet Display is great for everyday multitasking. It shines when you’re on the go or working with limited gear.

And that’s why more people in 2025 are eyeing a more powerful Duet Display alternative, like DeskIn.

September is always an exciting month for gamers. As the weather cools down, the gaming world heats up with fresh releases. Some games releasing this month are so addictive they’ll make you lose track of time. The stories keep you curious, the gameplay keeps your heart racing, and that “just one more round” easily turns into hours.

In this article, we’ll go through six of the most wishlisted titles launching this September: Hollow Knight: Silksong, Borderlands 4, Silent Hill F, Hell is Us, EAFC 26, and NBA 2K26. These games are set to spark huge conversations in the gaming community.

Hollow Knight: Silksong

silksong games, fitst list for games releases on sept

You’ll face over 200 fierce enemies—from beasts and hunters to assassins, kings, and knights—that will push you to keep playing.

Pro Gamer tip
Not every device can deliver the full experience. Consoles like Steam Deck, Xbox, Switch, and PlayStation are ideal, but not everyone owns them—especially PC gamers. With DeskIn, you can stream it straight to your mobile phone and even map joystick controls the way you like.

Borderlands 4

Synopsis
The looter-shooter franchise returns with crazier guns, wilder humor, and even more chaotic co-op missions. Players will explore alien planets, take on gangs and monsters, and hunt down loot that transforms playstyles.

Game Type: Sports Simulation
Supported Systems: Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch

Why it’s hyped
Every year, NBA 2K sets the standard for basketball games. NBA 2K26 introduces smoother shooting mechanics and new story-driven content, keeping gamers checking their games launcher daily.

Drawback
The PC version often differs from the console builds, frustrating many players. DeskIn solves this by letting you launch games without Steam on any device, so you always get the best version.

Why These Games Are So Addictive

All six of these titles share a common thread: they’re built to keep players hooked. From Borderlands 4’s endless loot grind to Silent Hill F’s haunting atmosphere and NBA 2K26’s competitive grind, each game pulls you in for the long run.

The downside? Not all games are playable on every platform, and mobile gamers are usually left behind. That’s where DeskIn comes in. This remote play tool lets you take your library anywhere—even letting you launch games without Steam from any device.

Conclusion

September 2025 is stacked with new games launching that will steal gamers’ time and attention—from the dark exploration of Hollow Knight: Silksong to the basketball rivalries of NBA 2K26. Each title has strengths and limitations, but all promise unforgettable experiences.

Remote Monitoring & Maintenance for IT Teams Using DeskIn

In IT, there’s a universal truth: systems never break down when it’s convenient. It’s 3 AM. Your phone buzzes. A server just went rogue. The team’s halfway across the globe. And you’re under a blanket. That’s the reality of modern IT, distributed teams, hybrid work, and the need for always-on support.

The great news is, you do not need to be in the server room or burn the midnight oil keeping those systems running. The right remote monitoring & maintenance (RMM) solution gives you visibility into what's happening, enables you to resolve issues quickly, and even averts problems before they happen.

In this post, we explain the essence of RMM, why it has become so vital to IT teams today, and how it can assist you in managing ever-expanding systems in a secure, flexible as well as scalable manner from anywhere using DeskIn.

What is RMM?

Remote monitoring & maintenance, or RMM, is how IT teams can view and fix devices without being in the same room, or even country. You can remotely hop in there, spot what the problem is, and fix it in that location instead of walking right over someone’s desk in order to check why a PC is crawling.

What Does RMM Actually Do?

At its core, remote monitoring & maintenance is to keep your devices healthy and your users productive. It typically includes:

  • Monitoring system health: Get a live look at CPU load, RAM usage, disk space, and even how apps behave over time. If someone’s laptop is overheating because 47 Chrome tabs are open, you’ll know.

  • Detecting usage patterns:  Know what kind of alerts are being generated frequently and how systems/services are used, or misused, notice the pattern before it gets to your attention due to a production issue.

  • Performing updates and diagnostics remotely: Patch security holes, push software updates, and run checks without waiting for someone to bring their device into the office; you can handle it all in real time.

Who uses RMM?

  • IT helpdesks: Fix issues quickly without disrupting the user.

  • Enterprise IT teams: Manage thousands of devices across multiple sites with ease.

  • Managed Service Providers (MSPs): Deliver proactive support that keeps clients running smoothly.

In short, RMM transforms IT from reactive to proactive, letting teams maintain infrastructure without burning out or chasing tickets all day. And in 2025, with devices spread across homes, offices, co-working spaces, and even airports, remote monitoring & maintenance isn’t just helpful, it’s mission-critical.

Why Remote Monitoring Matters in 2025

The way we work has changed, permanently. Offices are optional, teams are global, and IT is expected to support everyone, everywhere, without skipping a beat. In this world, remote monitoring & maintenance isn’t just a convenience, it’s the glue holding modern work together.

Let’s break down why it’s more critical than ever in 2025.

1. The Remote and Hybrid Workforce Is Here to Stay

Back in the day, IT could stroll over with a USB stick and a screwdriver. Not anymore.

Now, your design lead works from a café in Seoul, your marketing team is spread across four cities, and your developer just hopped into a new time zone, again. Supporting this scattered crew means keeping eyes on every device, no matter where it’s plugged in.

That’s where remote monitoring & maintenance shines. It keeps systems visible, updated, and supported, whether users are at home, in the office, or somewhere in between.

2. Downtime Is Expensive

Every minute of downtime bleeds productivity, revenue, and trust. A laggy laptop during a client pitch, a frozen system mid-code deployment, those moments hurt.

With remote monitoring & maintenance, IT can act before trouble hits. You’re not waiting for someone to say, “Hey, something’s wrong.” You’ve already spotted the issue and fixed it before it derails the workday.

3. Real-Time Visibility Stops Bigger Problems

It’s the difference between noticing your car’s engine overheating while cruising on the highway or catching it in the driveway.

With real-time visibility, you can watch CPU spikes, memory leaks, overheating, or unusual activity as they happen. It’s like a live dashboard that lets you step in before small hiccups turn into full-scale crashes.

4. We Live in a Cross-Platform World

Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS — today’s work devices speak different languages, and your monitoring tools need to be fluent in all of them.

With solutions like remote desktop, you can manage them all from one place. Whether it’s a MacBook in a music studio, a Windows desktop in a data center, or a mobile device in the field, remote monitoring & maintenance keep them all connected, secure, and running at their peak.

DeskIn vs Duet Display: The Best Screen Extension Tool for 2025?

Ever feel like your laptop screen just isn’t cutting it anymore? Like you’re constantly flipping between tabs, resizing windows, and trying to squeeze too much into too little space? Whether you're editing videos, designing, or just trying to keep Slack, Zoom, and Notion open at once, having a second screen can seriously save your sanity.

That’s where tools like Duet Display come in. It’s been a popular pick for a while, letting you turn your iPad (or other devices) into a screen extender. Pretty handy, right? But here’s the thing: in 2025, we’ve got options. And if you’re the kind of person who wants more than “just works,” there’s a new name worth checking out — DeskIn.

It’s not just another Duet Display alternative; it’s a screen extender with muscle. Real-time performance, ultra-low latency, and even 4K60FPS streaming. Deskin is built for people who actually need speed and clarity, not just extra screen space.

So if you’re setting up a dual monitor rig for work, gaming, or both, let’s break it down: Duet Display vs DeskIn — who really wins the second screen game in 2025?

What Is Duet Display and How Does It Work?

Originally built by former Apple engineers, Duet Display is an app that transforms your iPad, iPhone, Android device, or even another computer into a wireless or wired screen extender for your Mac or Windows PC. It's designed to bring portable, dual-screen power to people who don't want to haul around an extra monitor.

Supported Platforms

  • macOS

  • Windows

  • iOS / iPadOS

  • Android

Key Features

  • Converts your mobile device into a second screen

  • Wired (USB) and wireless screen extension

  • Touch input and Apple Pencil support for interactive second-screen use

  • Basic stylus input for sketching or light creative work on an extended display

  • Share keyboard and mouse across two devices

  • Desktop-to-desktop screen extension

  • iOS mirroring (view your iPhone on your PC or Mac)

  • Headless mode for server control

  • A lightweight, portable monitor replacement — perfect for digital nomads

Limitations

  • Most advanced features are locked behind a paywall

  • Doesn’t support full-color accuracy (no 4:4:4 rendering)

  • Not optimized for gaming — no game controller passthrough or high-FPS streaming

Common Use Cases for Duet Display:

  • Students or remote workers needing a budget-friendly dual monitor setup

  • Designers doing light sketching with Apple Pencil

  • Travelers who want a second screen without packing an extra display

  • Tech-savvy users wanting to control multiple machines from one device

Duet Display is great for everyday multitasking. It shines when you’re on the go or working with limited gear. But if your workflow demands real-time responsiveness, ultra-crisp 4K visuals, or pro-grade color fidelity, you might start hitting its limits fast. And that’s why more people in 2025 are eyeing a more powerful Duet Display alternative, like DeskIn.
