When Apple first introduced SharePlay a couple of years ago, I was certain that this was to support their to-be released AR headset

But then time passed and nothing much appeared to happen with SharePlay. In fact, I had almost forgotten about it since adoption of SharePlay seemed to be mostly limited to streaming service apps or music apps, and that was about it ... Even amongst streaming apps, the ones I used like Neflix or Amazon Prime did not have SharePlay.
But this year, it appears that SharePlay is back with a vengeance

Check out the following WWDC session to find all the new functionality being added to SharePlay:

The thing I don’t know at this point is, will SharePlay work if there is no network (or at least, no Internet)? I’m guessing not, but I’m curious to find out.
