Mac Mini M2 pro - Continuity Camera not working

I'm using an iPhone for wireless Continuity Camera operation but does not work. After some troubleshooting, it was found to work solo with a wired (lightning) connection. Please help.

Continuity Camera on Mac Mini M4 does not work Apple, fix Continuity Camera on Mac Mini M4 or stop advertising it I recently bought a Mac mini M4, and while it works perfectly overall, Continuity Camera doesn’t work unless I connect my iPhone with a cable. I’ve followed every step, called support six times, and no one has provided a solution. I’m not the only one—there are plenty of similar complaints. What’s the point of the “Apple ecosystem” if it doesn’t work as advertised? [Edited by Moderator]

Continuity Camera not working, even connected with cable. Hi every one, I'm using iphone XS (iOS 16.6.1 currently newest) and Mac Mini M1 (Ventura 13.5.2 currently newest) At the beginnning, when Mac Mini has just booted up, Continuity Camera worked just fine both wire and wireless mode. But after a night, the Mac cannot receive any footage from iphone, although it can recognize there's iphone connected. Then it worked when i restarted mac, and not working again after a night. I dont want to restart my Mac everyday so it would be great if you guys can help, I have seen this case but it does not help: Continuity Camera stopped working wireles… - Apple Community Thanks, Gia Minh.
