To the point of hiding the console for the better-written programs, I tested
out the "free" Vysor crippleware which has a huge advantage over scrcpy in
that it can work remotely over the Internet for both Android & iOS on all
the common consumer desktop platforms (namely Windows, Linux & macOS).

"Vysor puts your iOS or Android on your desktop.

Notice Vysor mirrors Android much like scrcpy did, with an added console:

Yet, unlike scrcpy in the native setup, the Vysor console can be killed:
