This tutorial shows how to use the I2C LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) with the ESP32 using Arduino IDE. We’ll show you how to wire the display, install the library and try sample code to write text on the LCD: static text, and scroll long messages. You can also use this guide with the ESP8266.

Additionally, it comes with a built-in potentiometer you can use to adjust the contrast between the background and the characters on the LCD. On a “regular” LCD you need to add a potentiometer to the circuit to adjust the contrast.

Before displaying text on the LCD, you need to find the LCD I2C address. With the LCD properly wired to the ESP32, upload the following I2C Scanner sketch.

Displaying static text on the LCD is very simple. All you have to do is select where you want the characters to be displayed on the screen, and then send the message to the display.

The next two lines set the number of columns and rows of your LCD display. If you’re using a display with another size, you should modify those variables.

To display a message on the screen, first you need to set the cursor to where you want your message to be written. The following line sets the cursor to the first column, first row.

Scrolling text on the LCD is specially useful when you want to display messages longer than 16 characters. The library comes with built-in functions that allows you to scroll text. However, many people experience problems with those functions because:

In a 16×2 LCD there are 32 blocks where you can display characters. Each block is made out of 5×8 tiny pixels. You can display custom characters by defining the state of each tiny pixel. For that, you can create a byte variable to hold  the state of each pixel.

In summary, in this tutorial we’ve shown you how to use an I2C LCD display with the ESP32/ESP8266 with Arduino IDE: how to display static text, scrolling text and custom characters. This tutorial also works with the Arduino board, you just need to change the pin assignment to use the Arduino I2C pins.

Imagine that you want to show the content from your smartphone’s small screen to your TV’s big screen. But you don’t know exactly what to search to figure out how to do this.

You don’t know what results to trust, because you keep coming across a ton of tech jargon like screen mirroring, screen casting and screen sharing…Which all sound the same.

It’s may be clear that all of these technologies have something to do with showing what is on your device screen. But what is the difference between them?

In the following sections, we will walk you through the differences between mirroring, casting or sharing your screen. We will also talk about how to use each of these technologies and when to use which one.

What it is:Screen mirroring acts just like when you look in a mirror. When you move your physical arm, the reflection does the same. With screen mirroring, whatever you see on one device is exactly what you see happening on the other.

To successfully screen mirror, you need a TV or monitor that supports this technology. Meaning that it can receive content via built-in technology like AirPlay or Mirecast, or by using a screen-mirroring adapter and receiver kit.

Screen mirroring doesn’t require Wi-Fi because it creates its own wireless peer-to-peer connection with the display that supports screen mirroring. For example, when screen mirroring your favorite streaming platforms from your phone onto you smart TV, and you don’t have an internet connection, you can still screen mirror content if your device or smart TV supports screen mirroring.

When to use it:Screen mirroring is great for in-person settings. It allows the presenter to work or show content from a more accessible device like a laptop but presents the content for the whole room to see.

What it is:screen casting is similar to mirroring except that you cast the content onto another screen display and no longer see it on bothdevices. For example, if you cast content from your phone to your TV, you will only see it on your TV.

How to use it:You can screen cast with technology like Google’s Chromecast or similar streaming devices and applications. Once you have successfully cast the content onto your TV, you will have to control everything from your TV not your phone or computer.

When to use it:Screen casting is great when you want to see content on a larger screen. For example, playing a game on your phone or watching YouTube videos from your phone. Casting them onto your TV offers a bigger and (sometimes) better display.

What it is:Screen sharing is most similar to screen mirroring, except for wherethe content is displayed. Instead of displaying content from one device to another in the same room (like screen mirroring), screen sharing displays content from one device to another in a separate or remote location.

How to use it:The person sending and the person receiving must both have a device that support screen sharing technology or it will not work. You can achieve this by using video call software.

When to use it:You might have experienced screen sharing while on a remote video presentation. Screen sharing is great for remote teaching, collaboration or sharing whatever content you want.

Screen mirroring:a mirror image or experience of your exact screen. See also: duplicate, reflection. The content is on both devices at the same time in the same room.

Screen sharing:a mirror image or experience of your exact screen. See also: duplicate, reflection. The content is on both devices at the same time in different locations.

1. Before you can download any software upgrades, make sure your appliance is connected to WiFi and our SmartHQ app. If you haven’t already set up your appliance with your WiFi, follow our instructions and you’ll be on your way.

If you travel with a laptop and iPad, you need this app. I needed a second screen, but Duet gives me even more. Full gesture support, customizable shortcuts, Touch Bar, tons of resolution options, and very little battery power. How is this all in one app?

I just love this app. Especially when I am travelling for work an working from the company branches. Then I use my iPad as second monitor for Outlook, Lync and other chat while I use the laptop big screen for remote desktop to my workstation at the main office. :)

Thank you for creating an app that removes me from the role of constant enforcer in our home. For example, we let our daughter choose the screen time limits with us yesterday, according to the values we have all been trying to adhere to as a family. And last night, she peacefully reached her daily limit. No pleading, no reminding, no guilt.
