    Well you can use Messages on your Mac to send SMS. But other than that, I have not seen a way to do what you want.

    Just curious whether there is anything like Samsung Sidesync on the IOS platform. Not only limited to just mirroring of the phone screen on the PC but also transfer input/output (mouse/mic/speakers) from the phone to the PC. This way you can interact with the phone via the PC mouse/mic while the phone is somewhere else.
