Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-02-03

As a new MacBook user, I have been using MacBook for almost 1 year now, and I have really felt the convenience of using Apple phones and computers (iPhone and MacBook Pro) together.

Before talking about the specific use of the content, we must first understand how to work with the iPhone and MacBook. The first thing we have to do is to log in to both devices with the same Apple ID, so that in the settings we can see all the Apple devices under that Apple ID.

Secondly, you need to turn on iCloud, which is Apple's cloud service function. The advantage of this is that the data on each device can be synchronized in real time through iCloud, so that the data can break the hardware barrier through the cloud, so as to improve work efficiency.

Of course, relevant hardware settings, such as Bluetooth, WiFi, and Apple's exclusive AirTransfer, should also be turned on.

If you have iCloud turned on both devices with the same Apple ID, and the relevant settings are not turned off, then you can start to use your iPhone and MacBook together.

iCloud is one of the core products of Apple's ecosystem, it can synchronize data between multiple devices, for example, I took a ** in the mobile phone album, in the WiFi environment, Apple will automatically sync ** to iCloud, which can reduce the volume of the ** At the same time, when I open the album on the MacBook, I will also see this **, if needed, you can quickly ** to the MacBook.

Apple-native software such as memos, reminders, calendars, etc., all support iCloud syncing.

As a photographer,Daily retouching is basically done on Mac,In the past, when I used to use Windows+Android phone,Basically, it is through third-party software to send the repaired ** on the computer to the mobile phone,The disadvantage of this is that it is more affected by the network,And sometimes half of the sending will be suspended because of software reasons,Very affect work efficiency。

And when I change to iPhone and Mac in turn, now through the airDrop method, you can easily send the ** on the computer to the mobile phone, and AirDrop is not restricted by the network, even if there is no network, you can also AirDrop, the speed is also quite fast.

When writing some new articles, I am used to using my mobile phone to find information, in the past, if I want to copy the text information I found on my mobile phone to the computer, I must first copy it on the mobile phone, then paste it on WeChat, and then send it to the computer, and then copy it from the computer WeChat, and then paste it. Now you only need to copy it on your iPhone and paste it directly on your Mac, which is a really efficient feature.

These are some of the tips I have learned about using my iPhone and computer, and although they may seem like trivial features, as I said in the article, this device has really improved my productivity.
