Hi, I am trying to somehow cast my tablet screen to my windows 10 laptop. I tried using the Smart View app but it said tablet to the computer wasn't supported. Is there any other way to do this wirelessly?

Hi, I am just trying to screencast my notes app to my screen, so I can write live on my tablet and have it shared on my PC screen which I can then screen share on Zoom. I thought there might be an android equivalent to Apple Airplay, but it seems this is not the case.

If you want to do live document mark-up with handwriting, you can simply use a digitizer/writting tablet for a computer, they are pretty cheap for the generic models https://www.amazon.com/Ultrathin-Gr...ocphy=9001809&hvtargid=pla-526184912555&psc=1
There's no easy way to do that... You can try remote-desktop server app (TeamViewer comes into mind) running on the tablet, with client running on the PC. I haven't checked Android Studio recently (a huge development IDE), but in previous versions it was possible to remote-control the target device thru it.

What exactly are you trying to use on your PC that is present in your smartphone? Screen-casting an Android smartphone on Windows is not so easy and it requires installing some third-party apps which can be dangerous. If it is some Android application that you wish to use, you can try installing a web app for the smartphone app instead on your PC.

It will be probably easier to go other way around - finding a pair of apps which will make your tablet work as a digitizer for Windows, and write your notes into a Windows notetaking app.

Yes thank you, I just wanted to be able to do this with what I already own. I know iPads can easily with airplay so I hoped there would be a Samsung equivalent. Hopefully in the future they support smart view on tablets
