My handoff/airplay devices are iPad Pro 2020(iPadOS 14.2),iPhone X(iOS 14.2),MacBook Pro2019 (Big Sur11.0.1) and apple tv.
iPad Pro and iPhone X can detect handoff from each other;But they both can't detect handoff from MacBook Pro(Big Sur11.0.1).
Same case in airplay. But it can detect apple tv.
I've tried all troubleshooting in all devices.

Same problem here. After the update I am unable to connect to the SmartTV here on campus via Airplay. Or with any device.
Please fix this soon.

Same problem.
Apple Mac Mini computer with the new Apple Silicon M1 processor and Big Sur 11.0.1, I try to connect it by Airplay to duplicate the screen, the computer detects the TV but the Sony television turns black screen and nothing is seen, nor duplicates anything.
With the same television, a week ago, I was using a Mac Mini from the end of 2012 and it worked perfectly. And today with another Macbook Air computer from 2014 and an iPhone from 2018 it works perfectly.

Hello,
In order to solve the existing HandOff problem currently experience by many users maybe after the update to Mac OS Big Sur. However in my case it suffices when I just open the note App on my MacBook Pro 2018 and simple inserted a photo from my iPhone 11 Pro Max using the build in function that is taking a photo from the iPhone that is directly inserted in the Note app. After this was done I found out my Mac and my iPhone had Handoff working properly again as before the update. May this could help a few.

Same issue. Handoff is so broken on Big Sur.

I am trying to connect my mini projector to my iMac through Airplay like I've always been able to do before I upgraded to Big Sur. Now my mac doesn't recognize it. It only recognizes Apple TV, which I don't even have. How do I fix this?

Yeah, same for me. Mine doesn't work between my iPhone X and MacBook Pro after the Big Sur update.

Same issue here. As of now 12/11/2020 the handoff (take picture, scan document, safari webpage from iPhone on MacOS, etc) feature between the iPhone 12 Pro and the MacBook Air M1 with Big Sur is not working! Get your stuff together APPLE! Who is the incompetent employee that's not even testing those things before releasing the update?!

Highly awaited the Big Sur update to address loss of screen mirroring(airplay) on my MacBook Pro. Sadly same problem exists!!!!!!
