Handy multi-display management with room for polish
ScreenXpert by ASUS provides basic multi-monitor control and window management tailored for ASUS displays—offering split-screen layouts, quick shortcuts, and monitor settings—but feels limited compared with more mature third‑party utilities and can be inconsistent depending on hardware and drivers.
ASUS ScreenXpert 3 extends the company’s multi-window management tools from dual-screen systems to a broader range of single-screen laptops and desktops. It centralizes quick access to ScreenXpert functions on a user-facing home screen and offers a customizable function list to adapt workflows. The interface retains familiar design elements from earlier versions while simplifying control of multiple windows and toolbars.
- Home-screen access to core utilities and window management tools.
- Customizable function list for tailoring shortcuts and controls.
- Design continuity with previous ScreenXpert releases to reduce the learning curve.
ScreenPad Plus integration uses a full-width secondary touchscreen alongside the main display. The layout treats the secondary screen as an extension of the workspace so apps and in-app toolbars can be dragged across displays, reducing clutter on the primary display. Built-in quick controls and contextual interactions aim to streamline common multitasking operations.
- Full-width secondary touchscreen that pairs with the main display.
- Drag-and-drop of apps and toolbars to relocate workspace elements.
- Contextual quick controls to manage interactions between displays.
ScreenPad brings a smartphone-like interface as a compact secondary touchscreen option. It provides a set of ASUS utility apps (Phone Call, Task Group, Handwriting) and refined quick controls to move video, chat boxes, or other small windows off the main screen without interrupting ongoing tasks. The layout prioritizes simple, touch-oriented workflows for routine tasks.
- Smartphone-style interface for touch-driven task management.
- Bundled utilities for communication, grouping tasks, and handwriting input.
- Improved quick controls to launch small apps or tool windows onto the secondary display.
Only ASUS laptops and desktop PCs support this application.

- Windows-only (Microsoft Store app); no macOS or Linux versions available
- Feature set is relatively basic compared with third-party multi-monitor utilities (limited advanced window management and automation)
- Occasional bugs and compatibility quirks reported after Windows updates or with certain USB-C docks/hubs — may require driver or firmware updates to fix
