Could the Continuity protocol reach the mac with the iPad?

New MacBook Pro

With the arrival of macOS Mojave come new functions that make the Mac operating system much more productive, being able to perform many more actions in less time. Without a doubt, Apple has done its job well and despite the fact that some analysts say that there are not many new features in the system, they are getting to know each other. many details that curiously have changed without Apple having announced it. 

It is already usual for Apple to present its new systems showing some of the new functionalities and saving many others to release them in the different later betas as well as in the official launch of the new version. 

One of the novelties that we can see in macOS Mojave is that the protocol is put into practice for the first time Continuity to take pictures. When we talk about this it is that when, for example, we are writing a Mail and we want to attach a certain photograph, if we have the iPhone nearby and the photograph is of an object in front of us, we right click and select attach photo from the iPhone, after which the iPhone starts up, We take the photo and we have it in the attached Mail in less than two seconds. 

Taking this procedure into account, we wonder if it could be the case that this protocol will be implemented in the near future between the iPad and the Mac, so that the iPad touch surface becomes an extension of the Mac desktop. third-party app that does that and is called Astropad, an award-winning app by Apple itself. However, it will be neither the first nor the last time that Apple makes use of the way of working of a certain application and implements a new way of parallel operation.
