It is also possible to enable or disable apps and control Siri.

you’re able to also, control the sound or return to the home screen.

I would say that this function is a kind of remote control for your iPad or iPhone.

This feature was only introduced in the beta version of iOS 16.

So you need the latest iOS to make it work.

This is currently the only legal way to remotely control your Apple Devices.

Running this function is quite easy.

If your devices meet these requirements, everything should work.

You do not need to have an internet connection.

As I wrote above, the functionality of this tool is quite limited.
