iPhone Mirroring on Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019 iMac

I read through the iPhone Mirroring info and saw that it said it wasn't compatible with older Macs without the Apple T2 security chip, but the iPhone Mirroring app is in my dock. When I click on it, it looks like it's functioning, but it quickly says "Unable to Connect to iPhone". Why would it be there if it doesn't work at all? Is there any workaround to get it working?

iMac 27″, macOS 15.0

Same here. I have an iMac 5K, 27-inch, 2019 and the app is in the dock as well but connection not possible after entering the requested passcode on the iPhone. Doesn't make sense to have the app installed on a Mac which doesn't fit the requirements at all.
