Does a Lumin APP for a PC running Windows 11 exist?

I have a Lumin X1.
I am presently using a tablet to operate the Lumin. But my eyesight is not what it used to be.
I would like to use my PC with its 17" screen, but I can't seem to find an Lumin App that will work on my PC.
Does one exist?

So, without a reply, should I assume that the Lumin player cannot be used with a PC running windows 11?

Thank you FDPDK, I just tried it, but that too doesn't work.

This might be an option for you, but it’s not Windows.

Apparently the Apple M1 (and perhaps M2 as well - I just don't know) products can natively run iphone and ipad (iOS) apps. Theoretically you could get a MacMini or Macbook Air, plug in your choice of monitor and keyboard, and use the iOS Lumin app.

I have not seen this personally and don't know how it looks, but you might want to research it.

If you use an iphone, there are some really nice benefits of using a Mac rather than Windows.

I sent an email today; I hope they respond. My vision is not too good with small print, so I need a much larger screen.

I don't think it will work with a PC, thus my questions. Looks like it will work with Mac, Androids but no PC.

I sent a message to Lumin and got a strange reply that I don't understand. Either my question was deemed not important or confusing.

I think it is a straight question.
Can a PC running Windows 11 download the Lumin app?
Not using some other Frankenstein method to maybe get it to function.

According to this link, M1 and M2 Macs (Mini, MacAir, etc) can run *supported* iPad and iPhone apps.

You might want to see if Lumin can confirm their iPad app will run on a M1 or M2 (Apple silicon) Mac. I think I have an M1 Mini lying around somewhere, so if you can't get a straight answer let me know and I'll try connecting that to my monitor and keyboard to see if the Lumin app installs and launches properly.

Still? Unable to work on a PC?

I do not think they have an app for Windows. The link above was a tricky way to perhaps emulate the Android version, but I would avoid that as some of those links connect to malware.

Tuckers,

Thanks for that post. Yes, I agree.
I just Lumin would respond.
