Continuity carries which connection you have open, never the connection’s settings, so the receiving device needs that connection saved already. iCloud Sync is what puts it there.

Requirements

  • Both devices signed into the same iCloud account
  • Both on the same Wi-Fi network, with Bluetooth on
  • Handoff turned on in System Settings > General > AirDrop & Handoff
  • TablePro running on both, and the connection saved on both

What carries over

The connection in front of you, and the table too when the frontmost tab is a table tab. Query text, scroll position, and unsaved edits stay put. TablePro for iPhone and iPad takes part on both sides.

Picking it up

The TablePro Handoff icon appears in the receiving Mac’s Dock and app switcher (Cmd+Tab), and at the bottom of the app switcher on iPhone and iPad. Open it to get the same connection, and the table if there was one.

When nothing arrives

Handoff is a system service, so the app cannot report why it stayed quiet. Check both devices: same iCloud account, awake and unlocked, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on, Handoff enabled.

No saved connection with ID ”…”.

The icon arrived, so Handoff worked; the connection itself is not on this device. Turn on iCloud Sync on both, or export the connection and import it here.
