Some questions to the Apple Vision Pro

[Dark-Signature]

Hi

Can any of you help me answer my questions?

1. the Apple Vision Pro can stream the screen of a MacBook. Would this also work if it is an iMac instead of a MacBook?

2. would I like someone to see on an iPad Air what I currently see through my Apple Vision Pro, i.e. that the AVP mirrors its image to the iPad. is that possible? And if so, how should this be done?

Isn’t the caveat to question 1 that it needs to be Apple Silicon?

Oh, good point! But I think with the current iMac models that have an M4 you should be safe. But in fact, I think the requirement was an Apple Silicon chip. Personally, I was only unsure about the screen mirroring/streaming because a MacBook was always used as an example, which was then displayed on the Apple Vision Pro with the virtual screen. But in principle it should be just as possible with an iMac (M4).

Any Mac that can currently connect via AirPlay will support mirroring the AVP. For iMacs, and iMac from 2019 will work.

No, it just needs to be on macOS Sonoma or above.
