Ditto Best Practices

  1. Before connecting to Ditto:
    1. Turn off notifications
    2. Close or minimize unused apps                              
  2. After connecting, look at your screen rather than the displayed screen when navigating. There is a lag between your mouse movements and what the screen displays when using Ditto.
  3. Be sure to stop sharing when you’re done.
