iTunes that can manage apps updated, but incompatible with macOS Mojave

Hands on: Audio-Technica's gesture-controlled, noise-cancelling ATH-ANC700BT headphones
You know what would be a great topic to cover - in both this review and elsewhere? Compatibility with the Mac! This is AppleInsider, after all, and not "IOSInsider".
This really needs attention, too, as the situation for bluetooth headphones on the Mac is utterly fscked. I'm sure they exist somewhere, but I have yet to find a headset that can both play sound and pull sound from a mic at the same time. In other words, if you want to use it for Skype or Facetime or a softphone or... whatever, then you are totally screwed. It just doesn't work. And I can't figure out why. It seems like there's some issue with audio going in both directions at once, and if you hand-set output to mono, you may be able to get it to work (my last round of experimentation was a few years ago and my memory is fuzzy). But out of the box on a new Mac, no dice. And no indication of what's wrong or how to fix it.
