Apple’s vision for the marriage of iPad and Mac won’t be completed until next year, as Universal Control has been delayed until spring 2022.
After having dropped the latest releases of its operating systems — including iOS 15.2, iPad OS 15.2, macOS Monterey 12.1, watchOS 8.3, and tvOS 15.2 — early Monday morning local time, one highly coveted feature that Apple promoted during its WWDC presentation earlier this year was notably missing. Unfortunately, it appears that Universal Control, a KVM-like feature that allows you to share a mouse and keyboard and work seamlessly across a Mac and iPad, didn’t quite make the cut in the latest versions of the company’s new iPadOS and macOS operating system releases. It appears that the release date for Universal Control on the Mac has now been adjusted from winter to “available this spring,” according to Apple’s information page for macOS Monterey.
