Connect devices with Continuum

Connect your phone to a monitor, keyboard, and a mouse to use it like a PC.
To connect devices with Continuum, you need Microsoft Display Dock, which is sold
separately.
1. Connect your Display Dock to the power supply.
2. Connect the monitor or TV to the Display Dock with an HDMI or Display Port cable.
3. Connect the phone to the connector on the front of the Display Dock.
A white indicator light turns on.
Tip: Both ends of the USB-C cable are reversible, so you don't have to worry about which
side goes up.
4. Tap Continuum, select how you want to connect, and follow the instructions.
The desktop view shows up on the external display.
Tip: To control both displays separately, you can connect a mouse and keyboard
wirelessly or using the Display Dock.

Work with Continuum

Continuum lets you power up a second screen and use your phone like a PC. You can even
run 2 apps at the same time, one on your phone screen, and another one in the desktop view
of the external display.
Tap Continuum, and follow the instructions to connect your phone to a monitor or TV.
The Continuum app turns your phone screen into a touchpad which controls the external
display. Tap things to open or select them, and swipe with 2 fingers to scroll.
If you also connect a mouse and keyboard, you can use them to click things and write text on
the external display instead of tapping your phone screen.
Your phone charges while connected to Microsoft Display Dock.
Open an app on the external display
1. Tap in the desktop view of the external display.
The start menu that opens matches your phone's start screen. However, some apps may be
grayed out. This means that they cannot run in Continuum's desktop view.
2. Tap an app on the start screen or apps menu.
The app is optimized for the greater size and resolution of the external display.
Your phone controls the external display as long as you stay in the Continuum app. If you
want to use your phone normally, go to any other view. Any apps open in the desktop view
stay open.
