handoff is not working on the Big Sur Update.

Before the Big Sur update, I use handoff a lot, usually from woodnote on my iPad(6th) to my MacBook Air. or safari. but it is no longer working. I did the usual turn off and on. wifi is on for both. they are both under the same ID. and internet is connect to the same thing.

Please help

Handoff not working after Big Sur update Handoff is not working anymore after I updated to Big Sur. I tried both directions iPhone -> Mac, Mac -> iPhone, neither of them is working. I've already turned handoff/bluetooth/wifi off and on, restarted the devices, logged out and back in iCloud. Has anyone else faced this and managed to fix it? 10x!

Handoff not working for Podcasts or Music, but working for other apps macOS 13.4 iOS 16.5 Handoff works for me for Safari, Mail, and Messages, but is not working for me for Podcasts or Apple Music. I've tried the typical solutions of toggling handoff, rejoining networks, etc. Any idea how I can fix this?

Unable to connect MacBook with iPad through Handoff Hi all, I'm facing some issues when I try to connect my MacBook Air 15" to my iPad Pro through Handoff. I followed any possible advice, such as turning on and off the handoff switch on both the Mac and the iPad, but apparently, the feature seems to work only sometimes. Both devices are connected with the same ID Apple, same Wi-Fi network, Bluetooth switched on and both are properly updated. The Mac doesn't see the iPad when I try to connect it with Sidecar. Continuity doesn't work either. Do I miss something? Thanks Matteo [Re-Titled By Moderator]
