    Does anyone know if this feature requires Bluetooth 4.0 or if it works over wifi? I don't remember any mention in the keynote.

    I am not 100% sure that it’s even in the current build of OS X and iOS 8.

    Agreed. I have all reasonably new hardware, 5S and 2012 rMBP and I haven't noticed that feature working yet.

    Here's the answer

    Yosemite 'Handoff' Feature Likely Limited to Macs with Bluetooth LE - Mac Rumors

    And it's time to upgrade...

    Plus limited to iOS devices with Bluetooth LE which means the iPad 2 won't get handoff also

    Do you notice the handoff settings in the settings preferences? Also, have you setup Facetime and iMessages on the Mac?
