ArcGIS Pro copy symbology from layer

[ValCannon1]

A very common task in ArcMap is to copy the symbology from one layer to another. The symbology tab has a nice import dialog that lets you copy the complete symbology definition, just the symbols or just the classification.

ArcGIS Pro seems to have a limited version of this capability buried in the Geoprocessing Tools call Apply Symbology From Layer but I do not see a way of doing it from the layer properties. There are work-arounds such as saving a layer file and then importing it to another layer, but it would be nice to have the same level of ease and control that was available in ArcMap.

BTW: Don't go trying to do this in Python. The command works **sometimes**

This functionality from XTOOLS works so good - minimal clicks (once you add it as a button), symbology is applied almost instantly, versatile (can copy any layer property), easy to quickly apply to other layers in your table of contents.  Something like that would be a great addition to Pro.

Can any one provide an update to this? 
@EmelineRenz's comment is a great summary of this issue: ArcGIS Pro copy symbology from layer - Esri Community

To add, I wonder how labels can be stored in symbology and if this functionality is applicable here

Thank you for your feedback. Beginnng in ArcGIS Pro 3.4 you can copy a subset of layer properties, including symbology. Please see Copy and paste properties between layers or tables > Copy a subset of properties for more information.
