Apple has launched iPhone mirroring, allowing users to mirror their iPhone screens on their Mac computers.
Apple released iOS 18 Developer Beta 2 for testing on Monday, featuring several new functionalities not available in the previous beta.
The tech giant introduced iOS 18 at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2024 on June 10. Since then, it has been made available to registered developers through iOS 18 Developer Beta 1, as reported by Gadgets 360.
The initial beta version of iOS 18 brought various new features to the iPhone, such as the option to remove app, folder, and widget names from the home screen, and the ability to enable dark mode for first-party app icons.
iOS 18 Developer Beta 2 features
Apple has introduced iPhone mirroring with the latest beta version, enabling users to mirror their iPhone screens to their Mac computers. This feature allows seamless management of apps, receiving calls and notifications, and drag-and-drop file transfers between the two devices.
However, this functionality requires both the iPhone and a Mac running macOS Sequoia beta 2 to be connected.
In addition, Beta 2 introduces a new toggle for Rich Communication Services (RCS) messaging in iPhone settings. RCS functions similarly to iMessage, indicating typing indicators and message read/receipt status, but is currently limited to the US.
Other updates include a new dark-themed icon for the App Store, a new widget in the Wallet app for connected cards, a + icon in the Passwords app for quick entry creation, and improved feedback options for the power button in the Control Center.
