I love watching your videos - loads tinkering about like I do, rigging up all manner of adapters and gadgets to get something done. Super motivating to go and mess around. :)
Nice. You can also easily design your own USB (type C) to (micro-)USB PCB boards and get them ship for less than $1 / board to solder your own custom adapters for a tidy setup. This also helps control the distance between the two USB plugs.
sounds cool, I'd love to know more about this, any examples?
USB Tester is what you want, Then you can see how much it put's out and the Volt & Amp Draw, Cheap little gadget that most people should have
Oh awesome. Might have to try this
Thank you for this. I don't have anything Apple, but I'm about to convert my Surface RT and any thing like this helps.
Definitely going to have to try that remote desktop. I generally just manage things with ssh, but it might be fun to play HL1 on the Pi while I'm in another room.
Nice idea using the iPad as a screen giant heat sink )
Hey! Not sure if you know but OSMC has released some builds for the Pi 4 finally, so I think you could maybe try them out and show us how they run!
Hi lee, I am still waiting for the hdmi splitter test for the Pis.
I use a third party Apple Pencil knockoff (Miccory Sketch Pure) which is cheap as chips and works very well with IOS RDP client.
Seems like a custom ribbon cable could easily replace your cluster-dongle.
Would probably end up at like $5
I'd be interested in something like that.
And I bet I'm not the only one.
Also a case. Call it the Pi-rasite
ribbon cable + blu tack seems perfect :)
If you make it, I’ll buy it👊
he is using remote desktop through wifi, there is no point to the pi being plugged into the ipad, it's only for power.
it is a very cool thing but in my opinion just plugging in the pi to a powerbank is far more convenient
@@flognortNot only for power - you also can connect to the Pi without WiFi directly over USC-C.
For an older iPad with Lightning port just install RaspAP on the Pi and connect directly to the WiFi hotspot on the Pi without the need of an external WiFi-router…
Hi! Nice video. What was the way you used to copy files from the iPad with insufficient current ?

Can't get motioneye os working on the pi zero 2 w. Can you make an video on how to get it working on the pi zero 2 w please?
What is the real reason to use setup like this? Are there any special task can you do in this way?
Superior file management & a full desktop browser. If your into programming it’s useful.
Maybe to avoid the need of same network USB OTG or rpi could be used to emulate ethernet adapter and then connect to rpi straight via USB.
And have not tried this one, but also you can enulate storage device and this way attached your NAS to your TV or iPad etc.
Correct, connecting to a RPI Zero 2 and RPI 4 with Bullseye doesn't work with the Remote Desktop client App on my iPad. I now use VNC Viewer for iPad instead, this works fine.
I think the regular updates are fixing things as vnc wasn’t working well before.
Awesome videos. I know that on the Pi4 I had this same setup but were able to use networking over USB-C. Is this still an option when using the pi Zero 2 W?
I’m not sure
That would be so cool if you had a magic keyboard case then it would be a real pc
Would I be able to do this with the first Pi zero? I picked up a zero 2 w and now I have a few spare zeros.
Yes but running an os on the previous Pi zero was very slow
Thanks for the video
something looks not clear tho:
- for the case were the rPi is connected to your iPad, is the rPI `emulate` Ethernet through USB or is the connection between the Pi and the iPad is through Wifi?
- In case of Wifi connection (obviously the last demo), are you using your home Wifi or the is the Pi is acting as a hostspot?
Configuring the rPI to connect to a home Wifi and then connect from the iPad to the Pi is quite easy, and I believe does not have much value.
But being able to have Ethernet over USB or have the rPI be a hotspot is very usefull, since we can use this kind of configuration everywhere.
Unfortunately I never being able to configure Ethernet over USB or configure on hotspot with a Pi Zero 2.
(however with a rPI4 I was able to have that configuration)
This worked well

@@leepspvideo Sorry for the critic..
I quickly watched the video you gave the link and it's difficult to follow / confusing.
you say that you will do it for a Zero 2W but in the end you talk about the rpi4 (which is not the same hardware)
you started to DL a version of an OS, but install another version.
It's difficult to know what is working and what is not.
On my side I was able to configure the rpi4 but not the Zero2W
It looks like not all OS works the same, an the way to configure them with the "rPI imager" is not the same too
Unfortunately, see the "Ethernet" option in the iPad Network settings, does not mean the Internet works. The RNDIS connection could start but not work in the end (it looks to be my issue)
It's very confusing.
I will watch it again, tho;
thank you for your videos and the time you spend to explain.
@@dthevenin it was running on Zero 2W. I suspect the issues you are having is with Wayland. You may have more success switching the window manager as shown here

would this setup be for setting up a coding server to use on the iPad ? and would the pi zero be able to handle VS studio ?
I don’t do any coding. Try asking on the Raspberry Pi forums.
Is there any special setup on the zero2w that needs to be done. I have tried but my iPad doesn’t see the zero2w. I have assigned a static ip. You can also buy a usb-c to micro usb cable…. Cuts down on connections
These 2 videos show the process, for this method you need to install xrdp as shown in the first video

With the dongles you don’t need to secure the pi as it’s held neatly in place.
@@leepspvideo thank you
Great, but how did u use rep client to connect Linux, as I know rd client support pc only~
This video shows the process

Quick question pls, does this particular setup uses wifi for connection?
It does, but this doesn’t

I have iPad 2 generation, can I format and install raspberry pi on it? If so can you create a video on this?
As far as I’m aware it’s not possible. Others have installed Linux on a jail broken ipad.
What operating system installed on raspberry?
Raspberry pi os 32bit
are they connected via USB, or the pi connected to your wireless network?
WiFi, but not in this video

I don't se the use your just powering the pi from the tablet but you are conected through internet or local network on the pi . Please correct me if I'm rong.
The iPad is powering the Pi. I”m using Remote Desktop to access the Pi.
@@leepspvideo Is communication between the iPad and Pi via the USB connection? Or is it for power only?
were did you get the Battery from.

Do you think there would be a case for this?
good idea 👍🏻
Do you need internet connection to remote connect to the RPi?
Yes, you could tether both to a phone.
@@leepspvideo Thank you for answering. But in some videos people talk about how they do not have to rely on a internet connection to use the RPi with the ipad because the iPad can communicate with the RPi through the Usb c cable. So right now I am a bit confused. I want sommething which will give me desktop apps on my ipad. A cloud pc is way to expensive right now.
This should help

Why do yo run remote? Why not to use the monitor of the iPad for Rsp 2 Zero?
I haven’t tried this hdmi adapter yet.

What I liked about the Remote Desktop setup is the simple plug in and go. No extra cables and still very portable. However if the hdmi adapter works the refresh rate and input lag will be better.
Have you tried scratch 3 on rpi 0 2w
I haven’t
Well give scratch 3 a try on Chrome/puffin i wanna see how it handles it
Should work tho.. not as fast as a rpi3
@@aboudi0507 Thx just wanted to know
Ha ha, for a moment I thought the iPad could accept HDMI input. HOWEVER, this is the next best thing. Now I have an excuse to get some USB 180 degree adapters!
Is it possible to install ubuntu to raspberry pi 4 and use it with iPad Pro?
Yes most systems will work with Remote Desktop
@@leepspvideo Thanks
Sound works ?
I can’t remember
Retropie work?
I have Retropie working on my Pi Zero 2.
@@leepspvideo ok but work on ipad when you connect with your Pi Zero?
@@spycory1 it won’t be useable with Remote Desktop as the lag and slower screen refresh is too much for gaming
@@leepspvideo thank you for your clear answer.
OMG Shut up and take my money!
It’s just not efficient. If i really need a offline linux system which runs physically. I’ll use proper case for the Pi and use type-c cable to connect it. Yours is quit geek. But not usable in the real world. Sorry. Nowadays, I’ll just use the cloud based linux for purposes.
