I'm getting my wife an M1 MacBook Air to upgrade from her old Windows laptop that is in pretty bad condition. She's hesitant about switching away from Windows, but I am a long-time Mac user and know it'll be better for just about everything she uses a laptop for (school, browsing, basic stuff, but occasional dabbling in video or photo editing, which is also better on a Mac) + will make helping her with stuff easier. Not to mention her old laptop can't be used off a charger and Apple Silicon is Apple Silicon.
She has an iPhone and I have an Android, so I don't really know all the ways iOS has cool compatibility features with macOS firsthand. I know some of the basics, like Handoff, and I'm sure I could Google odd features here and there, but thought I'd just ask this community: what are the most useful things you find about having both a Mac and an iPhone that make your experience using both better? Extra kudos if you found exceptionally useful things after switching from a Windows PC to a Mac while having an iPhone all along.
I want to help make her adjustment as smooth as possible (I've already found a few Windows-esque apps that will help), but I'm more interested in showing her cool ways she can do stuff with her iPhone + Mac that she couldn't ever do with her iPhone and PC.
Thanks!
