You can use QuickTime Player while your iPad is connected to your Mac mini via USB-C. Just select New Movie Recording from QT's File menu and select your iPad as the camera source. Don't actually record, just use QuickTime Player to view your interactions with the iPad. The iPad can be turned either horizontally or vertically.


With the monitor in horizontal orientation:



With the monitor in vertical orientation and QuickTime Player in fullscreen mode (menubar not hidden):



iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (3rd generation), iPadOS 15.4.1, Mac mini (2018), macOS Monterey 12.3.1, LG 27UK850 monitor
