SideScreen

Another Windows display for agent windows.

Move an agent’s windows onto a virtual display and preview that display without sending it your mouse or keyboard input. Supported native controls can be operated in the background.

Requires a separately installed MTT virtual display and .NET Framework 4.8. Background input supports classic native controls, not arbitrary browser pages. This is not a separate Windows session.

Ghost Display

A second Android display inside your phone.

Ghost creates another Android display inside your phone. Real apps can run there. An agent can screenshot it, tap it, type into it and swipe while your physical display remains separate.

Requires Shizuku. This does not create a separate Android user. Not publicly released yet.
