Thank you for taking the time to answer your viewers questions, pretty 😎 considering how big your channel is getting and still able to take the time to add these answers to this video 👍🏻👍🏻

[yamil.]

Jeff your voice brings me comfort. I’ve been a sub & a reader of 9 to 5 Mac for yrs. 😊

[tonep]

HDR! Fantastic stuff! This remote control is very nice, but I see it has the typical frame rate drops and severe stutters.

[amieka]

HDR is awesome man. Looks so bright and colorful. Looks fantastic

[hendrik]

Thanks for spotting the sun in that dark mode button. This will trigger me forever now. Hope they‘ll fix it very soon.

[DoctorVadarWho]

I think you’re the better host for this channel

[anthonylethbridge]

Excellent video. I hope that one day we will be able to mirror our Mac to our iPad as it seems we will not be getting dual boot on iPad.

[DoctorVadarWho]

That’s good to know they have Spanglish keyboard

[hullstar]

They really need to work on that dark mode safari icon

[cesarinrin]

Is apple ever going to implement split screen? thats over due.

[DominequeTaylor]

Will we be able to iPhone mirror to the iPad Pro? That would be dope

[DominequeTaylor]

I can see scammers trying to make a new scam around this feature. Instead of trying to get control access to someone’s computer and steal their stuff, they will convince you to give them control access to your phone that has more info on it compared to your pc. Please educate people on not giving away access to anyone they don’t know. But overall, this is a dope feature.

[sazomedia]

I hope they keep the feature of having your Mac receive iPhone notifications when not using the iPhone Mirroring app! I don’t want that to be a bug because I miss using Growler when that did that.

3:50 I would love this built in feature to SharePlay remote control my headless m1 Mac mini. Currently I have to use a RVNC app from iPad Pro to my Mac mini .

[HomeOffice]

I have the I-Phone 7 Plus. Yes, I wrote--seven, that is not a typo.

I am now forced to upgrade because my old phone will not handle the latest IOS and I need it for some of my banking APPS.

The reason I still have the old phone is because of the grandfathered service price of $35US per month unlimited.

Now I am at a crossroad between choosing the I-Phone 14 or 15 Pro Max or waiting for 16x. Either way, I will have to buy it directly bc my current phone is too old for a trade-in. I can wait a couple more months, no big deal. It will depend on the price of the 16, but maybe I should just buy a 14 or 15 and be done with it.

Suggestions?

[paidnull]

Hey I love the app I one on your iPhone, is there a specific app or how can we get those icons? You have a link somewhere? Thank you

[Industry-insider]

13:18 I believe you can mirror your Apple watch on your phone in the accessibility settings

[ismako]

iPhone mirroring does not accept inputs from a keyboard connected to the MacBook, you have to use the inbuilt keyboard!

[cdwtcdwt]

Apple is still not giving us the option to hide the dock

[DoctorVadarWho]

Do you think iPhone mirror will ever come to the iPad so you can use an iPad instead of a computer for the people who don’t have the computer but an iPad and an iPhone?
