Second screen one UI 3.1

[StijnV]

I found online that every tablet running one UI 3.1 should have the 'second Screen's option available. I have a Galaxy Tab s6 running one UI 3.1, but the second screen is nowhere to be found. Is there any idea when this option will be available?

Hi @StijnV,

Set up and use Second screen

Note: For the best results, make sure the two devices are close to each other and are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

Maybe you need to show your coworker how to do something online. Instead of crowding around your computer, you can mirror your computer's screen to a Galaxy tablet and let your coworker watch from the tablet. They can also control your computer from the tablet if they want to demonstrate what they learned.

1. On your tablet, swipe down from the top of the screen to open the Quick settings panel. 

2. Swipe to the left, and then tap the Second screen icon.

3. Choose your desired connection mode: Drawing/gaming or Video.

   

4. Once you’ve chosen the connection method, do not leave the Second screen page; it needs to be open to connect your two devices.

5. Next, log on to your Windows 10 computer, and press the Windows key and K key simultaneously.

6. Select your tablet from the list of available devices. Your tablet will remain visible to your computer as long as you keep the Second screen page opened.

   

7. If desired, select the check next to “Allow mouse, keyboard, touch, and pen input from this device.”

8. Your computer’s screen will appear on your tablet’s screen. You can use your computer’s mouse or your tablet’s touch screen to navigate your computer’s interface.

9. A toolbar will appear at the top of both the computer’s and the tablet’s screen. Select the thumbtack icon to pin or unpin this toolbar. When it’s unpinned, hover the mouse near the top of the page to have the toolbar appear again.

   

10. When you are finished, select Disconnect to end the connection. You can also press the Windows key and K on your computer, and then select Disconnect next to your tablet’s name.

Hello Bruce, thank you for your answer. I already found this online. But the problem is that I don't have a button for second screen, although my tablet is running one UI 3.1. Samsung claims that every tablet running one UI 3.1 should have this function

Alright! I will check with our product specialist to get more information about this feature on the Tab S6 👍

Hi @StijnV,

Hoewel je correct vermeldt dat dit staat opgenomen in de feature lijst voor de One UI 3.1 update voor Tab S6, wordt dit momenteel helaas enkel ondersteund op de Tab S7 & Tab S7+ modellen.

Momenteel zijn er nog geen plannen of en wanneer deze feature wel beschikbaar komt voor Tab S6.

Zodra ik hier meer informatie over heb, zal ik het met je delen.
