Universal Control won’t be coming to macOS Monterey until sometime this spring

Apple’s Universal Control feature has been delayed again, with the company’s website updated today to note that the drag-and-drop feature won’t arrive until sometime “this spring,” as spotted by the AppleSWUpdates Twitter account.

Universal Control was originally announced alongside macOS Monterey and iPadOS 15 at WWDC back in June, but the feature — which promises to connect Apple’s Mac and iPad devices, allowing users to use one mouse and keyboard for both and drag and drop content between a second. Not yet validated in either macOS or iPadOS. Apple hasn’t even begun offering Universal Control to developers or beta users for testing yet.

Apple previously updated its website in October to indicate that Universal Control will be available “later this fall,” but with the official end of fall just a few days away, it looks like the company won’t be reaching that estimate anymore.

Universal Control isn’t the only major feature that missed the initial release of Apple’s 2021 software updates. SharePlay, one of the company’s notable software features this year, wasn’t available when iOS 15 or macOS Monterey launched (the feature only arrived on iOS October 25 and hit macOS only today) , while other minor features also failed to make the cut.
