We've all heard the term "walled garden “The Walled Garden” when talking about Apple's integrated system. It is a term that refers to the closed system followed by Apple, which is a major competitive advantage represented in the complete control over all aspects of its products, whether in terms of hardware or software. To ensure an integrated and smooth user experience. This control allows its customers to experience small features that we like to call “magic moments”. They are a set of simple services and features that can only be obtained when owning several Apple devices that work together, which adds a great and amazing improvement to the user experience.
Copy and paste between devices
This is one of the most practical features of Apple’s system, where you can copy text or images from one device such as an iPad and paste them into another device such as a Mac. This feature works seamlessly provided that the “Handoff” feature is enabled in the system settings. It helps a lot in saving time and reducing the extra steps that you may need to transfer content between devices.
From experience, this is one of the most used features. It makes work much easier and makes sharing content between different Apple devices a breeze.
Comprehensive control and additional display
Apple’s integrated system offers a range of advanced features that allow you to control different devices together. With Universal Control, you can use one keyboard and mouse to control both your Mac and iPad at the same time. The great thing about this feature is that it keeps both systems running together, allowing you to use iPadOS alongside macOS. Perhaps the most distinctive feature of this feature is the ability to drag and drop files wirelessly between devices as if they were one device.
The additional display feature, known as Sidecar, allows you to turn the iPad into a secondary display for the Mac, which is an ideal feature for those who need to multitask or expand their workspace.
Annotate Screenshots Using iPad
Apple offers a seamless experience in handling screenshots between its devices. You can take a screenshot on your Mac, then annotate it directly using the Apple Pencil on your iPad. Once you’re done annotating, the image is automatically saved to your Mac. This feature opens up a wide range of uses, such as signing documents, annotating creative content, or pointing out specific details to someone.
Using Apple Watch as Biometric Authentication
The ability to use your Apple Watch as an alternative to your Touch ID is an innovative feature of the Mac. It allows you to quickly and easily unlock your Mac, while maintaining a high level of security. The watch also supports iCloud Keychain to automatically fill in your passwords, eliminating the need to type them manually. This integration between your Apple Watch and your Mac provides a seamless experience when logging into websites and apps, allowing you to easily get things done without worrying about remembering passwords.
Smart integration for AirPods
AirPods offer a unique experience in the world of wireless headphones, as they are characterized by their ability to intelligently and automatically switch between different Apple devices. Imagine that you are listening to music on your iPhone, and suddenly you receive a call on your Mac, the headphones will automatically switch to the Mac so that you can answer the call without any intervention from you. And when the call ends, the headphones will immediately reconnect to your phone so that you can continue listening to what you were listening to.
This seamless integration eliminates the need to deal with fiddly Bluetooth settings or manually reconnect your earbuds between devices. Whether you’re listening to a podcast, watching a video, or taking a call, AirPods intelligently work to deliver a seamless, convenient audio experience across all your devices, making them an indispensable part of your Apple ecosystem.
Innovative virtual screens with Vision Pro glasses
The latest update to the Vision Pro glasses brings new horizons in the world of virtual displays, where Mac users can enjoy an immersive widescreen experience in virtual space. This innovative technology turns your glasses into a huge screen that allows you to open and arrange multiple windows freely, as if you were working in a full-fledged digital studio. While this feature is specifically aimed at professionals, creatives, and gamers, it represents a quantum leap in the development of Apple’s integrated system, although the spread of the Vision Pro is still in its early stages.
Display iPhone screen on Mac
The iPhone Screen Mirroring feature on your Mac is a significant advancement in Apple’s integration, bringing the full experience of your smartphone to your desktop screen. You can now interact with your phone seamlessly without having to pick it up, whether you want to reply to iMessages, browse the web in Safari, or even order food from your favorite delivery apps. Best of all, all your phone notifications will automatically appear on your Mac’s screen, allowing you to keep up with what matters to you without interrupting your focus while working. This smart integration makes the experience of using Apple devices smoother and more efficient, especially for people who spend long hours working on their Mac.
Continuity Camera
Continuity Camera lets you use your iPhone’s high-resolution rear cameras for video calls, podcasts, or content creation. Whether you’re on Zoom, Google Meet, or recording professional video, the iPhone camera delivers better quality than most webcams. It’s an especially valuable feature for Mac mini users who may not have a built-in camera. The seamless connection ensures your video is clear and professional without the need for additional hardware.
Conclusion
Whether you’re using your Apple Watch to unlock your Mac, seamlessly switching AirPods between devices, or turning your iPhone into a professional webcam, it’s the little things that make a big difference. And even better? The more Apple devices you add to your collection, the more these features magically come together. It’s all about saving time, reducing hassle, and getting things done smart and beautifully.

I have a problem. I have two iPhones. All my calls and photos on the device I have are on my other device. Is there a way I can prevent this feature?
Hi Musa 🙋♂️, It seems that iCloud syncs data between devices. To disable this feature, follow these steps: Go to “Settings” then select your name at the top, then tap “iCloud”. From here you can select the apps you want to disable syncing for such as “Photos” and “Calls”. But be careful, if you disable app syncing, all synced data for that app will be deleted from iCloud and will not appear on your other devices. Hope this helps! 📱😉
Thank you very much, the explanation is very clear 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

I swear I started seriously thinking about switching to Huawei devices
Powerful batteries, powerful features
Although I have owned the third generation Apple phone since it was released, up to the iPhone 15.
Every time the battery fails me
Hi Mohamed Ali 🙋♂️, I totally understand how you feel about the battery. But let me remind you that moving from Apple to Huawei means giving up all the amazing features Apple offers that I talked about in the article. Such as the seamless integration between devices and great features like Handoff, Sidecar, and others. 😌 So before making a final decision, I would like to point out that Apple is constantly working on improving the battery of its phones in every new release. 🚀📱
Apple is an inspiring company that finds beauty, strength, safety, quality and innovation. It's as if you're riding in a British Bentley. I really find it that way. As for the rest of the Android devices, they may seem luxurious and elegant and strong in numbers, but they are the opposite in reality.
Apple is the biggest criminal company in history…
Peace and mercy of God,
Thanks for the article. Can you explain how to use an Apple Watch to unlock a Mac, and how to use an iPhone as a webcam?
Thank you and good luck, God willing
iPod touch 1th to 12th generation, some of them I have 1 of them from the same generation, iPhone SE4 and miniXNUMX, MacBook Air XNUMX, Apple Watch XNUMXth, XNUMXth and XNUMXth generation, AirPodXNUMXth, PowerbeatsXNUMXth, and AirTag XNUMX pieces
The best thing is the feature of opening the Mac with a watch, and the best thing is when opening the system permissions or passwords with just two clicks with the finger and the lock opens. Of course, you have the choice between pressing the watch button to open or by clicking to open, a feature I discovered by chance with the Apple Watch, Generation 8, and the old Mac with its relatively old system, but they work in harmony!
Thanks!
O God, grant everyone what I have and better and more!
