Mirroring your Macbook to an iPad Pro is an easy process that alows you to extend or duplicate the display of your Macbook on the larger display of the iPad Pro. This gives you the flexibility of using a single device as if it were two separate devices. The process is fairly straightforward and should take no more than a few minutes.
The firt step is connecting your Macbook and iPad Pro. To do this, you can either use AirPlay or USB-C. To use AirPlay, ensure that Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Handoff are turned on and make sure that both devices are logged in with the same Apple ID. Then, click on the AirPlay button in the menu bar on your Macbook and select your iPad Pro from the list.
If you prefer to use USB-C instead of AirPlay, connect both devices with a USB-C cable. Then open Finder on your Macbook and select the device in its sidebar; under General in its button bar check “Show this device when on Wi-Fi”. Finally, make sure both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network so they can sync their content wirelessly.
Once both devices are connected, it’s time to start mirroring! On macOS Big Sur open Control Center or go in its menu bar and select Display > Screen Mirroring; then select one of three options: Extend Desktop (which will extend the desktop across both displays), Mirror Displays (which will duplicate what’s shown on one display onto another) or Aspect Fill (which will fill one display while maintaining aspect ratio). For macOS Monterey choose Screen Mirroring from its menu bar instead.
That’s all there is to it! With just a few simple steps you can now extend or duplicate the display between your Macbook and iPad Pro for maximum productivity or entertainment value!
