Extend FAQs
Below you will find a collection of frequently asked questions and answers for Logitech Extend.
If I am using Android Mode on my CollabOS device, and Extend is part of my configuration, will I still be able to use Tap HDMI ingest when Extend is not active?
HDMI Ingest through Tap is supported when Extend is part of the configuration but not actively used by a BYOD computer. Once a BYOD computer utilizes Extend, the device enters BYOD mode and Tap HDMI ingest will be unavailable until the user disconnects Extend from their laptop.
