Does KDS require an iPad, or will it work with other devices?

Does KDS require an iPad, or will it work with other devices? iPads are awfully small.

Any advice on readability with iPads or other devices running KDS?

Thanks,

Miles

If you're looking to use Square's KDS software (instead of fresh KDS), Square KDS is only compatible with iPads running iOS 13 and higher. We're hoping to have the software available on more devices in the future @TampolisPasta.
