M1 MacBook Air and M1 iPad Pro Universal Control not working.

I have already logged out and logged back into my Apple ID on both of the devices. Restarted both of them after that too and universal control is still not working. I'd appreciate any help! Thank you!

Hello Techlight31,


To use Universal Control, make sure you've followed all of the steps in this article:

Universal Control: Use a single keyboard and mouse between Mac and iPad - Apple Support

Pay close attention to the details below:


If you don't see a device's display
• Click Add Display in the lower-left corner, then choose your iPad or other Mac from the Link Keyboard and Mouse section of the menu. 
• Make sure that each device meets the Universal Control system requirements and is using the latest software updates for Mac and latest software updates for iPad.
• Make sure that your devices are near each other—ideally within 1 meter (3 feet).
• Put your devices to sleep, then wake them up.
• Turn off Universal Control on each device, then restart each device and turn Universal Control back on."




Best Regards.
