Continuity Activation Tool

Continuity Activation Tool is a super handy, open-source utility that runs right from your Terminal. It's designed to help you activate Continuity features like Application Handoff, Airdrop, and Instant Hotspot on any Mac that's compatible with macOS Sierra – which many folks think is one of Apple's best updates!

How Does It Work?

This tool works by tweaking a few kernel extensions in your operating system. So, before you dive in, it's really smart to back up your system. Trust me, you'll thank yourself later!

Backup Your System

Even though the Continuity Activation Tool backs up all the system kernel extensions it changes, it's still a good idea to do your own backup. This way, you'll be safe just in case something unexpected happens during the process.

Check Compatibility First

The tool isn't just for activating features; it can also check if your Mac is compatible with the Continuity feature before you try enabling it. There's a System Diagnostic tool included that runs a quick check to see if your hardware meets all the requirements.

Compatibility List Available

The developer has put together a list of compatible Mac models, so you can easily find out if yours will work with Instant Hotspot, Application Handoff, or Airdrop using this app.

Important Note on Bluetooth Dongles

If your Mac doesn't have built-in Bluetooth 4.0 and you're thinking about getting a dongle from online stores to meet the requirements, keep this in mind: Continuity Activation Tool won't work with those! It only supports the wireless cards that Apple uses in their devices.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

It's VERY IMPORTANT to know that launching the Continuity Activation Tool could potentially harm your system. Make sure you have a bootable backup ready in case something goes wrong and your Mac doesn't start up afterward.
