THE HOLM GUIDE / REFERENCE

Troubleshooting & FAQ

A few things that help.

No music in the notch?

Check Settings → Open notch → Media controls. Start playback in a player that exposes a Windows media session. Some websites or players expose fewer controls than others.

No weather?

Windows location services are needed for automatic setup. Choose a city manually in Weather if location is unavailable. Forecasts refresh at most every 30 minutes.

Missing messages?

Allow notification access in Windows Settings → Privacy & security → Notifications, and check the app’s own notification settings. Numeric unread badges can still work when message previews are unavailable. Teams messages are not supported.

Phone cannot open the QR link?

Both devices need to be on the same network and the share must still be open. Guest or school networks may isolate devices. Phone sharing is local; Holm-to-Holm Code transfers are the option for separate networks.

Does Holm support Mac or ARM64?

The published build targets Windows x64. No native macOS, Linux or ARM64 build is advertised.
