When I tried to add my iphone as connection on Codex App, there's no QR code shown up.
"Pairing code unavailable: Timed out waiting for remote control to connect"
I've tried refresh the connection and log out then log in on both devices, none of them works.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Settings > Connections > Control this Mac > Allow Connections > add > no QR code shows up
What is the expected behavior?
Able to see the connection QR code
