Continuity stopped working for messages/calls (between iOS and macOS)

Hello,


Few days ago I noticed my iPhone was no longer working seamlessly with my MacBook Air for calls and messages. While before I could send text messages and receive cellular calls from my laptop, or select the MacBook speakers as audio output for calls received on my iPhone, now I cannot do any of this.


I did not change any setting.


Here's what I have already tried:

  • Restarting both devices
  • Signing out from both devices and signing back in
  • Making sure they're on same Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is enabled
  • Disabling and re-enabling all related settings in handoff, iMessages and Facetime


I have also seen similar threads here and I have already followed the troubleshooting in this 3rd-party website that is sometimes recommended here.


I'm currently at a loss why it's still not working. Any idea that could help?

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14

Other stuff I tried but didn't work:

  • Forcing sync and signing out specifically on iMessages and Facetime
  • Resetting keychain


Lost my patience and I reset all settings on iPhone and reinstalled macOS from scratch.

Problem solved.


Thanks Apple
