I cant get it to work. Anybody knows of a tip or two for it to work. So far I've done :

Enabled BT, WIFI and Handoff on my iphone and Mac. Both of them are signed into the same iCloud account. 10.14.2 is what I'm running on the mac and 12.1.3 is my iOS version on the device.
 
Try:

a), pair the Bluetooth on your mac with iPhone. I know for normal circumstance it is not necessary but why note give it a try.

b), Try use other 'handoff' functions to see if they work. Like, on your mac, right click your desktop, select "scan a document from iPhone". If the camera on iPhone pops on itself, means handoff is working.
So there is no hardware issues. Perhaps a bug prevents the clipboard from working, or an app that clear clipboard automatically (like 1Password).


c), if a & b not working, try logout iCloud from both your devices then login again.

d), Create a new temp user with your iCloud. If clipboard is working then there are definitely some issue with your user account.

e), If none of this could help you try reinstall mac.
