Apple catches me with new "iPhone Mirroring" / use the phone from macOS

Apple catches me in its eco-system with new "iPhone Mirroring" feature / operate the phone conveniently from the desktop

I'm still working on the switch from iPhone to GrapheneOS. After so many years, I'm a bit trapped by Apple. Now a new feature has come out: iPhone Mirroring. I love it, I can operate the phone comfortably with keyboard and mouse on the 5k screen.

Unfortunately, I've been using GrapheneOS less since this feature came out. This is very bad for my privacy, but unfortunately I'm a lazy person.

What can I do?

Will there be a client for macOS and Linux?

Can plug mouse and keyboard into a phone and they will work. With all Pixels since the Pixel 8 you can use an external display.
Youll need a good quality usbc dock or hub to be able to plug in everything you need. If it has hdmi out you have much more options for your display.

It's terrible quality. See https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/14331-pixel-8a-screen-mirroring-has-terrible-quality-with-cable-to-5k-monitor

Not working for me

GrapheneOS

Scott That's not normal and is an issue with the cable you're using, not with GrapheneOS.

secrec well security research still happens even without source code.

DeletedUser26 Research sure, but you're talking much lower effectiveness at detecting flaws and a much smaller set of eyes even bothering to look at it.
