I use Authorization Plugin & Daemon to connect to mobile phone via Bluetooth to do user login authentication.

It can be used normally in macOS 10.14, 10.15.

But on Big Sur, the Bluetooth function is not working. To use [CBCentralManager authorization] always get CBManagerAuthorizationDenied.

I have tried the following but it still not work.

  • Add NSBluetoothAlwaysUsageDescription in plist
  • Manually add my daemon program to the Security & Privacy > Bluetooth

Is there any way to make the Bluetooth function to work?

On Big Sur, it is not possible to use Bluetooth in a daemon. There are unfortunately no workarounds for this either.
