    I am running w10home on all my devices. I noticed that when I tried to use the "mirroring" feature (I forget the name of it), to see my computer on my ipad. It says it's a feature for windows 10 pro only. Is there any way I can make this work on my home devices without forking out for pro?

    The other way around is what I want to do. I want to access my windows 10 computer on my ipad from other locations and use it that way. I have to try what you just put up too!

    Sadly Miracast isn't available in iOS.

    What about using something like Chrome Remote Desktop?
    you would have to have chrome browser installed on both devices.
