According to a report of 9to5mac Gilherme Rambo, Apple is working on a feature that lets you turn your iPad into a secondary Mac display. That feature, with the code-cider name, MacOS 10.15, can ship with this fall.
If you are using Luna Display or Duet display, then you are already quite familiar with this setup. With those third-party hardware and software solutions, you can turn your iPad into external display. Then you can increase your Mac display, move windows to your iPad and use your iPad as an external display.
And it seems Apple wants to change those setups into the original attribute. It can boost iPad sales for MacBook users, and MacBook sales for iPad users.
Apple wants to make that feature as simple as possible. According to 9to5mac, you will access it in the corner of every window with a standard green "max" button. You can hover over that button and send the window to iPad.
By default, apps will maximize on the iPad and will appear as full-screen windows. You might be able to send multiple windows and split your display between several MacOS apps, but it's still unclear.
Graphic Designers are going to like that feature, as you would be able to use Apple Pencil. For example, you can imagine to send the Photoshop window to your iPad and use your iPad as a Wacom tablet.
The CDC standard will also be compatible with the external display. This window can be easy to manage because you will be able to send windows in the second display with just one click.
Finally, 9to5mac says that Apple is also working on a shortcut like Windows - for example, you can drag it to shape it in half of the window on the edge of the screen.
