I can think of a good reason for Universal control on iphone: file sharing. Iphone camera is wayyy more mobile than ipad and depending on which Ipad, the camera quality could be much better on iphone. in my experience airdrop hasnt been as reliable as I had hoped. could be a great work around. And same utility for Iphone to mac or macbook if you are editing on that and not your ipad.

[@SimonLYW]

I can’t wait for this, my iPad lives on a monitor arm just under my Mac displays. This is going to be such a productivity boost for me.

[@CAMTechChris]

I’m a an unabashed huge apple fanboy, totally immersed in the apple ecosystem. Universal Control has been an amazingly useful feature for me. Love the channel Chris! Super excellent content. Thank you!

can anyone explain why i'm trying to create a life that needs this capability? rather than needing this capability for my life?

[@keithmooore]

This functionality exists on logitech peripherals. It works the same way and it's cross platform. You can seamlesly move your mouse between linux/windows/macos/ios and android devices. They also have keyboards that do the same.

[@xpovisualarts267]

Maybe the guy was paid for this

[@keithmooore]

@@xpovisualarts267 I don't think so. Apple users usually just ignorent of anything outside of their iBuble.

[@xpovisualarts267]

😁 That's a good one n yea that's true though

[@raphaelmartins6529]

It's not the same experience, you can't move files from one device to another, for example. And it's not as seamlessly as the Apple universal control. You don't even need to install any third party app to be able to use universal control. You can't do the same with logitech.

[@keithmooore]

@@raphaelmartins6529 while I agree that EXPERIENCE might not be the same, just like with most apple products, but there's no lack of functionality with logitech mice and keyboard. Coursor seamlesly goez from one screen to the other, you CAN copy files and so on. Yes you need to install logitech software on devices you want to use your peripherals with, but it also allows you to move files across different OS and not just apple eco system. And all this functiobality were available like 5 years ago on all platforms to whoever needed it.

[@xsaber321]

Works with 2018 MacBook Air and above… meanwhile I’m still using my 2017 MacBook Air 🥲

[@RenM908]

As an apple user and after seeing the new tab s8+, I think the iPad is sorely lacking in terms of what it could do.

[@theencryptedpartition4633]

No one mentions that we don't have to buy iPad Magic Keyboard

[@angryk1ttyy]

Hey daily tech just wondering if you like beats because you just got the iPhone 13 mini and I just want to know if the beats are worth it?

[@Matt_SD]

How do you get the magic keyboard to connect and type on the Mac? I got the mouse working, but my iPads magic keyboard won’t connect.

[@RAMSBR001]

One of the things I used in the past, Sharemouse, was awesome to control my surface tablet and Mac Mini but it used Wi-Fi and had some considerable lag. It looks like universal control uses Bluetooth instead, and there hasn’t been any noticeable lag for me. Granted, you can’t use it to control a windows device.

[@High_Key]

Fantastic video. Can you do a workflow video using Universal Control? So just to be clear, this could actually make it more seamless than air drop?

[@Dailytekk]

When is workout bug I’d say yes…

[@jaredwhite88]

I've been using the public beta and Universal Control on my M1 Mac mini, and it's been great! I do have an issue with mouse scroll wheels, like you said…best to use Apple peripherals for now (though my Keychron keyboard's actually been pretty solid). I also have an Intel MBP, so it's been wild to go across and drag files between a MBP, iPad Pro, and Mac mini in various display configurations. Wow!

[@migueljackson9230]

Is it available yet? I have an M1 iMac and M1 iPad Pro but don’t know how to use it. :S

[@jaredwhite88]

[@nicolasbraunhaiti]

What are the games you showcased on the iPad?

[@truckingandtraveling]

Not gonna lie, I love Apple Pay and continuity and that's it. I love how I can switch between my Mac mini, MacBook Pro and iPad with the trackpad and keyboard. Haven't found out how to switch windows between the two or three seamlessly. I guess it can't be done. I guess I'm ok with that. I'll just use my Mac and MacBook Pro as my workstation. Respect!! I'll continue to use both but, Android as my mine phone OS and my iPhone as my secondary.

[@TechGently]

Giggity! Just found your page. I just went to Mac from 30 years of PC as a reseller because my eyesight has gotten worse. My software on the Mac is included with zoom features that I would have had to get a special program for had I gotten a PC. So right now, I have my 27" iMac running with Windows Remote Desktop (my quoting system requires PC) with very little lag. I quickly move over a 2nd window to my iPad Pro 12.9" holding down the green circle and selecting "iPad Pro". My iPhone/iPad Pro/Imac has been a cohesive workflow that no android or PC has ever given to me.

[@rapatski]

I'm sorry, but you're putting the MacBook Pro with its amazing screen, keyboard and trackpad in a clamshell, and use an iPad with it's keyboard INSTEAD? Why on earth not use the MacBook as the interface, with the iPad to the side?

[@Billyxiao]

My universal control between iPad pro and MacBook did not function. It was working the first time. 1. I m connecting to the same 5G wifi router 2. same Apple ID 3. both the latest update of the system 4. both are enabled handoff, universal control enabled. weirdly , my iPad only can extend my screen from the MacBook but it just won't work as universal control.

[@DigiDriftZone]

I have the iPad Air 4 and a MacBook Pro 13" M1, this is EXTREMELY unreliable for me, it does not work on most wifi, on my home wifi when I come home I have to reboot the iPad multiple times, usually need to disable "Cursor and Keyboard" before powering off, then back on and enable before it (sometimes) finally shows up. Does this work reliably for you?

[@katielui131]

Are you using iPad Pro or iPad Air? I have an iMac, I am really happy to learn about this universal control feature so I can share my keyboard and mouse with the iPad. Now considering whether I should pay for the extra bucks for the iPad Pro thinking that it'd be an extra monitor. I am thinking about going for iPad Air before because I don't really need super high resolution, I don't game, I don't do graphic design) I was thinking of using the iPad as a elevated Kindle + notetaker (I take a lot of notes 24/7) - any advice?

[@cassio-fm]

Ahhh see but you still need an Xbox for playing, hence Apple sucks!.... Just kidding!!! hahahaha I love Apple and your videos!! I accidentally used Universal Control now, literally accidentally, and it was so natural that I was like "what the hell!". Now I want to master it ahahah

[@texgem]

We have two regular iPads one iPad mini 5 one iPad mini 6 and one iPad pro. But I use Samsung phones i own the Samsung S21 Ultra and Note 20 Ultra my wife has S20 FE kids s12 phones.

I have used it. I moved my iPad into another room and noticed the mouse cursor was still in the screen.

Make sure you move the cursor off the ipad if moving to another room for some reason.

[@chrystalcainshiarla6437]

I’m a little confused on the purpose of the 2 docks. Is the Brydge Dock mostly for cable management and to drive dual monitor? What’s the purpose of the secondary dock? On your gaming screen, how do you have both the Xbox and Mac plugged in - Does it have 2 HDMI inputs? I have a similar setup that I’m trying to see if I can simplify. I have a really crappy 3 to 1 HDMI switch that switches via an IR remote between PC, Mac, and Nintendo Switch on 1 27” monitor. Wondering if one (or both these docks) could make that more seamless. Can’t wait to be able to control my Mac via my iPad 12.9 keyboard!

[@jajascarlet]

This is the worst thing I've seen on my recommended. 😑 Cause I have a Mac and iPad and now I don't know if I should add another monitor. hahaha Cause this looks so convenient and very seamless. I never knew that this was possible. Sidecar already gave me more variety on how I can work on my devices. This is a game changer. 😯 I have more options of whether or not I should just get another monitor and not a full on iMac. Cause I also want to integrate both PC and my OS devices as I want to play games on a PC. Especially that the Parallel Software can integrate Windows with the macOS. lmaooo BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD! Thank you for this!💪🏼

[@chicagobob]

I haven't been able to use sidecar and universal at the same time so I think the Luna Display system solution is more robust albeit $100 --you get the combination of Sidecar and Universal control to iPad or another Mac.

[@slavadonnikov708]

Hi Cris! Thank you for this review. One question which is a go / no go for me. Would UC allow me to use apple pencil on iPad to access Macbook screen (basically iPad as a touch bar) and interact with the Mac applications? Say for example I'm sharing my screen on my Macbook during the live demo with my customers and I want to use the pencil to quickly select and screenshot a part of my screen and make a simple sketch or diagram on this screenshot (and of course my customers should be able to see all this). Would I be able to do this?

Everything has been working well for me however the Drag and Drop feature doesn't seem to be working with my current set-up. Anybody else experiencing the same problem/bug?

Thank you for this. I just grabbed a deal on 8 core GPU 256GB model iMac 24 from Amazon and it cost £200 dollars less than apple education. I have a M1 iPad Pro 2TB and a M1 Pro 14 10/16/1TB so figured use universal control across all three and then still have a solo iMac for the family at my standing desk and not just pay 1.5K for the new display.
