Using an iPad as external monitor for a GrapheneOS Pixel?

I'd love to have a modern tablet running GrapheneOS for when I am on the go.

Currently there's only one supported device: Pixel Tablet (tangorpro) from 2023 that is no longer available to buy and refurbished/used ones are extremely expensive where I live and not worth it for the older meh hardware.

I'd like to avoid carrying an external monitor and simply use a modern iPad as the bigger screen if needed, that otherwise can be used as a regular iPad.

  • the newer Pixel phones support DisplayPort Alt Mode
  • iPadOS doesn't support video input via USB-C for external devices
  • Bluetooth mouse/keyboard are used as primary input methods during such a use case.

the only solution that possible works is an App based (example Duet Display) on both devices, with a wired or network connection.

the Luna Display dongle and apps don't work, as there is no Android based app from them.

Anybody using such a setup or have another solution?
