For live demos, I use Airplay to mirror the display to an AppleTV. For online demos, I use an app like AirServer or Reflector that make my laptop an Airplay-receiver and then share my desktop/screen over G+ hangout.

I highly recommend adding the "Fingertips" Cocoapod to your project and it will highlight finger presses and taps when it detects you are using an external display. You just need to replace your UIWindow with MBFingerTipWindow.

We created this to cover situations where the presenter doesn't have AppleTV. And using AirServer or Reflector in addition to G+ seems to add unnecessary middleware to a process that should be streamlined and easy.

iOStream takes about 60 seconds to add to any existing iOS project and it makes your application accessible through any web browser, without having to install additional desktop software. And yup, we do highlight finger presses and taps as well!
