So shut, but thus far. Forward of WWDC 2024, I had hoped Apple would let you mirror your iPhone inside of the Vision Pro, similar to how you should use your Mac on an infinite digital show. As a substitute, we bought iPhone Mirroring on macOS Sequoia. Because the identify implies, it should allow you to see all the pieces in your iPhone from the consolation of your Mac.
However, I puzzled, what in case you mirrored a Mac that was mirroring an iPhone within the Imaginative and prescient Professional? It looks like the best workaround in concept, one that may resolve the headset’s annoying incapability to play properly together with your iPhone. However, sadly, it will not work. We have heard from educated sources that Apple’s {hardware} solely helps certainly one of its Continuity mirroring options on the time. So in case you’re sending your Mac’s display to the Imaginative and prescient Professional, you will not have the ability to mirror your iPhone on the identical time.
We have not heard the precise purpose for that limitation, however I would wager it comes right down to networking limitations. Mirroring a pointy and lag-free model of your Mac’s display is troublesome sufficient — juggling that alongside a superbly rendered copy of your iPhone could be too powerful for some Macs. Apple is already pushing past its present Continuity restrictions with visionOS 2, which can assist larger decision Mac mirroring, in addition to the power to virtualize an ultra-wide show. So maybe there’s room for multi-device mirroring down the road.
It isn’t laborious to think about Apple bringing the iPhone mirroring characteristic on to the Imaginative and prescient Professional finally, however ideally, it will additionally work alongside Mac mirroring within the headset.
Listed below are a number of different tidbits we have realized about iPhone mirroring on macOS Sequoia whereas exploring WWDC:
-
It requires each WiFi and Bluetooth to work, and the iPhone is projected at 60 fps.
-
While you launch a sport, the iPhone window flips into panorama view in your Mac. The sport’s sound additionally seems to be synchronized nicely.
-
Mirroring will use across the identical quantity of battery life in your iPhone as typical utilization.
-
When you unlock your iPhone instantly, the mirrored window closes instantly in your Mac.
-
You may finally have the ability to drag and drop recordsdata and different content material between your iPhone and Mac. This characteristic will even be accessible on third-party apps.
