MacBook Air continues to disconnect from my XR hotspot and then can't find it again.

Using hotspot on my XR Iphone, MacBook Air continually disconnects from it and then can't find the hotspot again unless I reset the network on my phone.

You may have to try and use Continuity settings to reaffirm the ability of your iDevice and Mac

to see and hand-off features. To restart one, is usually not enough. Several that do not seem to

be useful (among 12 some sections) should be checked anyway. ~ Surprisingly these can help.


• Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch - Apple Support

• Instant Hotspot

• Handoff

• Universal Clipboard

• iPhone Cellular Calls

• Text Message Forwarding

• Auto Unlock

• Continuity Camera

• Continuity Sketch

• Continuity Markup

• Sidecar

• AirDrop

• Apple Pay


Even 'AirDrop' may work better once most of these are checked again and re-established.
