Introducing a Dramatically Faster and More Secure Ditto

Squirrels Updated on May 4, 2023

Product Updates

Ditto proxy support

Starting today you’ll notice a number of improvements to Ditto performance, security capabilities and even how it looks.

Jump ahead to get a complete breakdown of each Ditto Connect and Ditto Receiver update.

Performance Boost

Ditto now performs better while using less power. Traditional screen mirroring puts a lot of strain on a computer’s CPU, which can degrade performance and create lag. We’ve off-loaded capture and encoding processes from the CPU to the GPU, which means your devices can better handle intensive tasks. This makes screen mirroring with Ditto more efficient: less latency, better frame rates.

Proxy Support for All-encompassing Security

Ditto is now compatible with corporate proxies.

Organizations that need high-level security often use proxies to route network traffic. A proxy acts like a gateway on your network: the right traffic gets to its destination and harmful traffic is blocked. Ditto securely shares content on even the most restrictive corporate networks.

Better Layout

Android devices look better than ever. There’s no more empty space around your mirrored content — Ditto makes the most of every available screen.
