Rollo62 602 Posted 8 hours ago Hi there, I have see a new not that Parallels 26 is available, but with some not so nice news. It says, translated from German: Quote Below is a list of features that are no longer supported and have been removed from Parallels Desktop for Mac 26: ... Shared Bluetooth functionality. Bluetooth devices connected to your Mac (such as keyboards, mice, or game controllers) will continue to function normally in virtual machines. Note: To connect a Bluetooth device directly to a virtual machine, you should use a USB Bluetooth dongle. One of my main functions was to use MacOS as a last resort for debugging iOS BLE devices and their protocols. Because the MacOS and iOS Bluetooth systems are fairly compatible, this has been a 100% error-free option up to now. According to the text above, this now seems to be a thing of the past. An external dongle brings with it a 99% probability of further new errors and problems during debugging, and 1:1 behavior between macOS and iOS may no longer be guaranteed. Because multi-platform debugging under Delphi is currently almost completely unusable anyway, this is my last hope for testing external Bluetooth devices (Android debugging is extremely unreliable, iOS debugging has not been possible for some time, and macOS debugging has still been possible until now). Yes, there is still the option of debugging under Windows with a BLE dongle, but that was also relatively tricky and not really compatible with iOS/Android, etc. It starts with finding a compatible BLE dongle that works with Windows/macOS. Does anyone else have the same concerns as me? Maybe there are already solutions for this, or, at best, everything still works as before under PLS 26? BTW: I'm still working on an Intel MacOS, which maybe also behaves different to the M1, regarding external BLE-Dongles. Share this post Link to post
