Use your iDevice as an extra display for your Mac

I know this is nit-picky, but Duet is not "the first app that allows you to use your iDevice as an extra display". It's not even the second. There's an opportunity here for better copy to differentiate themselves.

Also, I've always thought this would reduce the life of your ipad. Has anyone noticed this?

you chopped off this part "...iDevice as an extra display for your Mac using the Lightning or 30-pin cable"

How? Like the display burning out or something? Maybe something battery related?

Battery is definitely a concern, though it probably doesn't matter since it will be plugged up. The screen dimming might be a concern for me as well. Honestly though, now that I think about it, I've never been worried about that with my laptop, so I probably shouldn't care about it with my ipad.
