![]() That means that a lot of Android apps out there aren't optimized for larger screens. Even though Samsung and Huawei have both offered desktop mode experiences for years and sell millions of smartphones a year, there's not a lot of demand from users to support desktop mode. The biggest downside to desktop mode on Android right now is the limited app support. Screen mirroring using a DisplayLink adapter isn't as ideal as native desktop mode through a standard connector, but it's better than not having any display output at all! Fortunately, Taskbar can still be used if you're just mirroring your phone's display so long as the app is set as the default launcher, but you'll have to use the developer's SecondScreen app to change the resolution and density. If your device doesn't support DisplayPort Alternate Mode, then you may have luck using a DisplayLink-certified adapter and the DisplayLink Presenter app to mirror the phone's display. Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 800 and 700 series chipsets natively support DisplayPort Alternate Mode over a USB 3.1 Type-C port, but some vendors (like Google) have disabled this functionality on their smartphones. Keep in mind that in order to actually make use of this feature, your smartphone must support display output.
