I use the app to connect digital signage devices, and PCs that are being revived, to test if output is working. Main benefit for me: an iPad takes up less space on a workbench than a regular display. I use a Newhope HDMI-to-USB C recording dongle which works well (but build quality is so-so). Apart from its practical value, the Orion app is a delightfully designed app with a goofy UI.

I got https://www.amazon.com/ARZOPA-Portable-Kickstand-External-Sw... which is a bit cheaper if you just want a display that can be driven via USB-C/HDMI without the expense of an iPad.
