Control your iPhone from your Mac
You can use iPhone Mirroring to control your iPhone from your nearby Mac. When iPhone Mirroring is turned on, you can also receive iPhone notifications on your Mac and keep track of Live Activities, so you don’t miss a thing.
Note: Some iPhone features such as the camera and microphone aren’t compatible with iPhone Mirroring. Also, some Continuity features, like Continuity Camera and AirPlay, aren’t available on your Mac when using iPhone Mirroring.
Before you begin
Make sure of the following:
You’re signed in to the same Apple Account on both devices.
Your devices are within 30 feet (10 meters) of each other.
Your Mac has macOS 15 Sequoia or later and your iPhone has iOS 18 or later.
Both devices meet minimum system requirements for iPhone Mirroring.
If you’re using a VPN, make sure its configuration doesn’t prevent local networking, as that may interfere with some Continuity features.
To use iPhone Mirroring, it must be available in your country or region. iPhone Mirroring isn’t currently available in the European Union.
If iPhone Mirroring isn’t available in your country or region, iPhone Mirroring tells you that it’s unable to connect to your iPhone for that reason.
Set up iPhone Mirroring on your Mac
Make sure your iPhone is turned on and nearby, with the screen locked.
Go to the iPhone Mirroring app
