I seem to remember vaguely that iOS 18 was supposed to have a feature but was left out in the end. I do not mean the AI stuff, there was some other major part. Something like handoff but not handoff. I completely forgot what it was and searched online but searching without knowing what to search is a...challenge :-)

Anybody here have any clue what it was or am I imagining things?

Ah! Found it!
iPhone Mirroring

That was the one. Sadly, not available in the EU for now :-(

I tried it out today! Works decently with most apps, but lags a bit with others. I’ve run into one app that doesn’t scroll vertically, but hopefully that is an easy fix on the developer’s part.

Yeah and I can't get my head around why it won't be available here in the EU. This is so fucking stupid! Like how is the DMA or any other legislation supposed to prevent them from implementing iPhone mirroring? They literally offer every other continuity-related feature over here. This is just Apple being upset they're actually being regulated in the EU.

I honestly think it’s just because their lawyers work through other stuff first. They’ll get to it eventually
