If anyone made an app that allows you to switch between devices of the same brand with the same exact keyboard and mouse, I’d definitely use that!<br><br>An example of this would be if you’re on a Macbook working within a Jira ticket and you’re also on the Asana ticket for the same thing, you can switch both the trackpad and keyboard between the two devices with the tap of a button.<br><br>I can’t imagine it being too difficult for an apple watch to communicate directly with an iPhone and an iPad or an iMac.<br><br>General idea:<br><br>* Connect from Apple Watch to iPhone<br>* Connect from iPhone to iPad and iMac<br>* Click the switch button on Apple Watch to switch the keyboard and mouse between the iPhone and the iPad/mac computer.<br><br>This would be a huge productivity play for me personally and gets me out of the numpad shortcut at least.<br><br>Edit: for all the ‘someone’s already done this’ comments, I tried it, it absolutely doesn’t work, and I would need this to work between 5-10 devices at once.<br><br>Edit #2: the ability to add this to Mac Pro would be ideal but might be a bit more difficult. I understand this would be the most challenging to implement.
