Ensure "Allow iPhone Mirroring" is set to "False"

MediumLevel 1Manual reviewintune-macos

Description

Phone Mirroring is part of Apple's Continuity features that allows macOS devices to access iPhone functionality. When enabled, users can make and receive phone calls, send and receive SMS messages, and use their iPhone's cellular connection from their Mac. This feature requires devices to be signed into the same Apple ID and connected to the same WiFi network or in Bluetooth range. The benchmark marks this a Manual check of an Intune macOS policy setting that cannot be read from the endpoint with a script, so TMAegis lists it as a manual review item with the audit steps (the policy must be inspected in the Intune admin center or on the managed device).

How it is checked

This recommendation cannot be checked automatically. A scan lists it with these instructions when you pass --include-manual.

macOS: Intune admin center: Expand the Restrictions heading; Verify that Allow iPhone Mirroring is present and set to False. On the device: Double-click com.apple.applicationaccess Profile; Under the Details section; Confirm Allow iPhone Mirroring is set to False
