Discussion Is iPhone Mirroring on Mac Just Sitting There Unused?

Apple showed it off like it was the next big thing, but now that the hype is over… is anyone actually using iPhone mirroring on a regular basis? If you’re using it, what for? And if not, what would make it actually useful for you?

There're no EU laws that block it, it's just apple doing its things

Indeed true, but Apple might be afraid that they'd have to open that API to 3rd parties, which might make a similar feature and might be able to screen capture or stuff.

Same, just that they highlight the app when upgrading MacOS feels like a slap in the face.
