I cannot find the universal control option on my MacBook Pro

Without knowing which build year version MacBook Pro and other associated

details, this would be non-productive to try & research the possible answer(s.)

IF your MacBook Pro model can use the instructions given here, maybe that

unit is fairly new; perhaps late Intel-based or newer M1/M2 Apple Silicon(?)

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

"Before continuing, make sure that each device meets the Universal Control system requirements,

~ including that each is signed in with the same Apple ID, and Universal Control is turned on."

• Use a keyboard and mouse or trackpad across devices with Universal Control on Mac - Apple Support

To use Universal Control, make sure of the following:

• You’re using supported models of Mac and iPad.
• Your Mac has macOS 12.3 or later, and your iPad has iPadOS 15.4 or later.
• You’re signed in with the same Apple ID with two-factor authentication on all your devices.
• You have Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Handoff turned on in System Preferences (on your Mac) and in Settings (on your iPad).
