Can I use HomeView Handoff with both iPhone and Apple Studio?

HomeView Handoff Question


Handoff. Start a song, podcast, call, video, or recipe on iPhone, and continue on HomeView without missing a beat.


So this cannot be done using an Apple Studio? I use both the iPhone and the Apple Studio and am hoping Handoff can be utilized with both devices to the HomeView?

AI Overview


Yes, you can use Handoff with HomeView from your iPhone. However, HomeView Handoff is designed for mobile and home-hub integration (such as iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch) rather then use it with a desktop like a Mac Studio

How HomeView Handoff Works

  • iPhone to HomeView: You can start a song, podcast, call, video, or recipe on your iPhone and seamlessly continue it on HomeView. 
  • Requirements: Both devices must be signed into the same Apple account, have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on, and have Handoff enabled in your settings (under Settings > General > AirPlay & Handoff on your iPhone).

Thank you WheelieNik. I will without doubt then be picking up the HomeView one day soon. You've given more than enough reason to add that device to my network. Perhaps in the future more improvements will be made on that new device where we will upgrade and hnadDown rather than HandOff to my children or Grandchildren 😉
