Replica, a screen mirroring app, now supports playing Nintendo Switch games on your iPad. Simply connect with a UVC adapter and HDMI to start playing on your iPad's display!
Hi everyone, I’m Tiago, the developer of Replica. I created this feature in my app because I found that the iPad screen is superior, and I rarely played games on a TV. However, it was only with the recent update to iPadOS 17 that Apple made it possible to connect iPads with USB-C to other devices, like the Nintendo Switch. That’s when I decided to update Replica to support this feature. Now, you can play your Nintendo Switch games directly on your iPad by simply connecting it via HDMI using a UVC adapter. I’m really excited to share this update with you all and would greatly appreciate your feedback or any questions you might have. Thank you so much for your support!"
Kudos to the developer for recognizing the potential of playing Nintendo Switch games on the iPad screen. Now, I can enjoy my favorite games on my iPad's. 👏
ha ha ha
I couldn't believe it at first, but after using this, it was the best video game experience in my life
Thank you very much for your efforts to create a masterpiece
Take your Switch games with you on the go and play them anywhere you have an iPad.
Great app from a skilled dev, well done Tiago! Super useful to mirror screens across devices :)
This is super cool! Crazy what’s possible with the iPad nowadays!
Will this work on USB-C iPhones as well?
I don't even have a Nintendo Switch and I love it. (But I got an iPad) So where do I only get the controllers😂

Who hunted Replica?
Replica was hunted by Tiago Martinho. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
