on

To mirror or record iPhone screen to a PC or MAC there are many wireless mirroring solutions are available like Apple TV, AirServer, Reflector, and X-Mirage. But unfortunately all these are paid. The only free working software to mirror iPhone's screen to PC or MAC is provided by ThinkSky called iTools.




iTools software from ThinkSky is a free software for Windows PCs that requires no special cable to mirror an Apple device's screen to a computer. iTools can use iPad's, iPhone's, or iPod touch's USB charge/sync cable to grab the connected device's screen and show it on your computer. If your computer is already connected to a projector, it's handy to have your device's screen appear on your computer, which will make it appear on the projector screen.

Software Screen of iPhone, iPad Screen Recorder

Feature of this iPhone recorder software:
  • No need to install an app on your iPhone/iPad. 
  • Only this software is required to install on your Mac or PC.
  • iTools is 100% freeware with no ads.
  • You can record your iPhone screen with the sound/commentary from you MAC or PC's mic.
  • One drawback is iTools' mirroring is a bit laggy. Just remember to slow down your movements.
  • Because you are connected with the charging/sync cable, your device charges as you mirror.
  • If you want a longer cable for more mobility, pick up a USB extension cable. You can get one for cheap from Amazon, and they come in all kinds of lengths.
  • You cannot control your device through iTools or through an interactive whiteboard. Only the device's touchscreen works as input.
  • ThinkSky, the company that makes iTools, is Chinese. Their website looks dubious, however, I've been running iTools for months and I feel the software is safe. 
  • It does not install adware, toolbars, or plugins.
  • Surprisingly, iTools' mirroring works with older devices like iPod touch 3rd generation, iPhone 4 and iPhone 5.
