Apple Confirms iPhone Mirroring Will Skip EU in macOS Tahoe

Citing the EU’s Digital Markets Act, Apple is exploring compliant ways to introduce iPhone Mirroring without compromising its security model.

Control your iPhone from your Mac.

Overview

  • Apple confirmed at WWDC25 that iPhone Mirroring will remain unavailable in the EU when macOS Tahoe rolls out later this year.
  • The EU’s Digital Markets Act could force Apple to enable mirroring for Android and Windows devices if it offered the feature on Mac, generating antitrust concerns.
  • iPhone Mirroring lets users mirror their iPhone screen to a Mac desktop, interact with apps, and receive notifications over a wireless connection.
  • Apple fears offering iPhone Mirroring in the EU may trigger a gatekeeper designation for macOS, subjecting it to stricter platform regulations.
  • Company executives say they are working with legal teams to find a compliant solution that preserves privacy and security before expanding the feature.
