How to View and Control Your iPhone From Your Mac
Friday, October 11, 2024
With iPhone Mirroring, you can wirelessly interact with your iPhone and its apps and notifications from your Mac. Your iPhone stays locked, so no one else can access it or use it to see what you’re doing.
- Click the iPhone Mirroring app in the Dock. Or open it from the Applications folder or Launchpad.
- If your Mac asks you to unlock your iPhone, use your iPhone to enter your iPhone passcode.
- If your Mac asks whether to allow notifications from your iPhone, click Allow or Don’t Allow. You can change this later in Notifications settings on your Mac.
- If your Mac asks whether to require Mac login to access your iPhone, choose Ask Every Time or Authenticate Automatically. You can change this later in iPhone Mirroring settings on your Mac.
- When the iPhone Mirroring app shows your iPhone screen, it's connected to your iPhone. You can now interact with your iPhone from the iPhone Mirroring window.
- To stop mirroring your iPhone, quit the iPhone Mirroring app or unlock your iPhone.
If you have more than one iPhone signed in to your Apple Account and nearby, you can use iPhone Mirroring settings to choose the one that your Mac uses for mirroring and iPhone notifications.
