macOS Monterey adds the ability to AirPlay content to a Mac from other Apple devices, such as an iPhone, iPad, or another Mac. According to the macOS Monterey features page<\/a>, you can view videos, edit Keynote presentations, and hear music on your Mac as it\u2019s being played from your other device. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Mac works with any Apple device. However, Apple notes that it\u2019s even easier (though I\u2019ve found it\u2019s almost necessary) to connect if the devices share the same Apple ID. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use your Mac as an AirPlay 2 speaker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your Mac can function as a third-party AirPlay 2 speaker, allowing you to play music or podcasts to your Mac or use it as a secondary speaker for multiroom audio. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Play a song or podcast on your iPhone or iPad,<\/li>
  2. Tap the AirPlay icon.<\/li>
  3. Choose your Mac from the list of AirPlay devices.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"Choose
    AirPlay devices<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Audio should start playing from your Mac\u2019s speakers or any external speakers you\u2019ve connected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    AirPlay video to your Mac<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You can also AirPlay video from an iOS or iPadOS device to your Mac. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    1. Play a song or video on your iPhone or iPad.<\/li>
    2. Tap the AirPlay icon.<\/li>
    3. Choose your Mac from the list of devices.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      \"The
      Video on Mac<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      The video will play on your Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Mirror or extend a device’s display<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      When you send content from your iPhone or iPad to your Mac, you can choose to mirror your iPhone or iPad or extend its display by using a Mac as a secondary display for apps that support it, such as Keynote and Photos. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
      1. Open a photo, spreadsheet, etc. on your iPhone or iPad.<\/li>
      2. Tap the Share icon.<\/li>
      3. Scroll down until you see AirPlay.<\/li>
      4. Choose your Mac from the list of devices.<\/li><\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \"The
        Data on your Mac<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

        The photo, spreadsheet, etc., will appear on your Mac\u2019s screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        AirPlay works both wirelessly and wired using USB. Apple notes that a wired connection is useful when you want to ensure that there\u2019s no latency or you don\u2019t have access to Wi-Fi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
