Apple preview: iOS 18 Beta 2 will be released next week and will launch iPhone mirroring and screen sharing functions

According to news on June 22, Apple spokesman Fred Sainz recently revealed that Apple plans to release the iOS/iPadOS 18 Beta 2 update next Monday (June 24).

At the same time, he also confirmed that the new version will launch two functions: iPhone mirroring and enhanced SharePlay screen sharing.

It is reported that iPhone mirroring allows Mac users to mirror the iPhone screen to Mac devices, interact with iPhone, receive iPhone notifications on Mac, and seamlessly drag and drop between Mac and iPhone, etc. .

Similar to the current multi-screen collaboration functions of various Android manufacturers, this function was first developed by Huawei Hongmeng to achieve seamless collaboration between computers, tablets and mobile phones, and was later followed up by various manufacturers.

Originally, it should be more convenient to connect various devices under the Apple ecosystem, but Apple has only launched this feature so far, which is slightly behind Android.

SharePlay is a collaborative feature developed by Apple based on FaceTime. For example, you can use FaceTime with your friends to make video calls and watch the same movie on their respective devices.

In fact, it is similar to the "open room" function in apps such as Tencent Video, with enhanced social attributes.

The above is the detailed content of Apple preview: iOS 18 Beta 2 will be released next week and will launch iPhone mirroring and screen sharing functions. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
