New Splitscreen app lets you add a second macOS display to an Apple Vision Pro environment

New Splitscreen app lets you add a second macOS display to an Apple Vision Pro environment.

Apple’s Vision Pro doubles as a 4K Mac virtual display, allowing you to extend an existing Mac desktop to the device’s spatial computing environment.  Now a new app called Splitscreen takes things a step further, by allowing you to add a second macOS display to your Vision Pro. It’s free, but does promote in-app purchases. 

According to the SplitScreen description, the app lets you “share an extra Mac display to your Apple Vision Pro. Expand your virtual Mac displays to support more than one display and improve your productivity while working on Apple Vision Pro. Expand the screen real estate of your Mac across multiple windows, even if the Mac and Apple Vision Pro use different Apple IDs.”

SplitScreen supports 1920 x 1080 resolution (though more resolutions are “coming soon”) and has a refresh rate of 60 frames per second.
