iOS Mirroring, one of the most significant features in Apple’s upcoming operating systems, is now available to developers testing iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia betas. As of the latest beta releases, you can mirror your iPhone directly on your Mac, so you can launch and run iPhone apps, and even move files between the two devices.
iPhone Mirroring lets you easily use Mac apps alongside iPhone apps. In demos, Apple showed editing a video on Final Cut Pro and adding it to an iPhone template. You can also access iPhone notifications and audio on your Mac. Developers can switch between devices more smoothly during presentations too.
The best part is your iPhone stays locked while mirroring, so no one can access it without permission even if you leave it behind. Standby Mode also works normally, so you can glance at mirrored info.
Though public betas are still weeks away, developers can try iPhone Mirroring now in iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia beta 2. But these early betas can have bugs, like battery issues and crashes.
iPhone Mirroring introduces convenient new ways to move content between Apple devices. Businesses benefit from improved workflows across iPhone, iPad and Mac computers. And mirroring adds more productivity for all Apple users by letting these devices work seamlessly together.
