iPhone Mirroring times out no matter what

I'm trying to set up iPhone mirroring for the first time. I'm using the app on my Mac and my iPhone. I've tried 5 times and it times out every time. I've tried connecting my charging cable but it still times out. Bluetooth is turned on for both devices and I'm on the same WiFi network.

iPhone Mirroring Not Working for Anyone Else? Hi everyone, I’m having trouble getting iPhone Mirroring to work. I have a 2021 MacBook Pro 14-inch with the M1 Pro (16GB RAM) running Sequoia 15.0, and an iPhone 15 Pro Max on iOS 18.0. Both meet all the requirements for iPhone Mirroring. When I launch the iPhone Mirroring app on my Mac, I see the intro screen that says “Your iPhone on Your Mac,” then I click ‘Continue.’ The screen briefly flashes “Unlock Phone,” but then it switches to “Unable to Connect iPhone” with the message: “Make sure ‘My iPhone’ is powered on and near this Mac, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled.” I’ve restarted both devices multiple times and tried again, but still no luck. Clicking ‘Try Again’ hasn’t resolved the issue. Both devices are powered on, near each other, and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Any tips on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

iPhone Mirroring not working on MacBook even though they have same Apple ID I am experiencing an issue with iPhone Mirroring on my MacBook. My MacBook and iPhone are both signed in with the same Apple ID and iCloud account, and both Bluetooth and Wi‑Fi are turned on. Despite this, iPhone Mirroring is not functioning as expected.

Thank you for your reply, SravanKrA. I have double-checked all of those. Sadly I still can't connect. Here's a screenshot from my Mac.
