What is Display Pilot 2?

Display Pilot 2 is a macOS utility from BenQ Corporation for managing settings on compatible BenQ monitors. It helps users control display options from the Mac instead of using the monitor’s on-screen buttons, which is useful for desks where quick changes to brightness, audio, and color mode are part of the daily workflow. The app also includes desktop partition tools for arranging windows across preset layouts, making it helpful for multitasking on larger or ultrawide displays. BenQ also highlights model-specific features for supported monitor lines, including options aimed at designers, programmers, video creators, and MacBook users. On supported setups, it can integrate with monitor features such as Focus mode syncing and light controls. This app is mainly useful for people who use a compatible BenQ monitor as part of their regular work setup on macOS 13 Ventura or later.

Safety overview

Status: Mostly safe

Display Pilot 2 is legitimate monitor-management software for compatible BenQ displays. It may run in the background so monitor controls and convenience features stay available, which is normal for this kind of utility. Depending on your setup and features in use, it may request access needed to communicate with the monitor or coordinate desktop behavior. Keep it installed if you use its monitor controls regularly, and remove it if you no longer use a supported BenQ display or prefer the monitor’s built-in controls.

Recommendation: Keep Display Pilot 2 if you use a compatible BenQ monitor and want quick access to display settings and layout features from macOS. If you no longer use those features, you can remove it with little impact beyond losing software-based monitor controls and related convenience tools.
