AirDrop is a useful Apple feature that allows iOS users to share files, documents, photos, and more between Apple devices instantly. With AirDrop, you can easily share data without the need for cables, Bluetooth, or any third-party application. This feature is compatible with iPhones, iPads, iPod Touch, and Macs. Here’s how to use AirDrop on iOS devices.

Before you Begin

Make sure that both devices have AirDrop enabled, and they are within close proximity to each other. For the newer versions of iOS like iOS 11 and later, swipe up from the bottom of your phone display to open the control center. Then, you will need to move on to the features’ section and select AirDrop to enable the feature.

Step 1: Sending a File Using AirDrop

To share data using AirDrop, locate the file or document you want to share. You can share photos, videos, notes, contacts, PDFs, and many other types of files using AirDrop. Once you’ve located the file, tap on the share icon(usually represented by an upward arrow). Next, you’ll see a list of options for sharing the file. Find and select the AirDrop icon. You’ll then see a list of nearby devices that have AirDrop enabled. Select the recipient device from the list.

Step 2: Receiving a File Using AirDrop

If you are on the receiving end and another iOS user shares a file with you, you’ll receive a notification asking if you want to accept the file. If you tap on “Accept,” the file will download to your device automatically and save to your device’s location. If you don’t want to receive the file, tap “Decline.”

Step 3: Restricting AirDrop to Contacts Only

If you’re concerned about receiving AirDrop requests from strangers or anyone nearby, it’s possible to restrict AirDrop to your contacts only. Go to Settings on your iOS device, then tap on General, then AirDrop. Here, you can choose either Everyone, which allows anyone nearby to see your device, or Contacts Only. If you select “Contacts Only,” only your contacts who have AirDrop enabled will be able to see your device, which increases your privacy.

Step 4: Troubleshooting AirDrop Issues

If you’re having trouble using AirDrop, there are several troubleshooting tricks you can try. Make sure both devices have AirDrop enabled and are close by. You can also try disabling and enabling Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on both devices.

Conclusion

AirDrop is a fantastic feature that makes file sharing easy and convenient. It saves you the time and hassle of using third-party apps, email, or other sharing tools. However, it’s essential to keep in mind that AirDrop is limited to iOS devices only. Also, ensure that both devices have AirDrop turned on, and if you’re worried about privacy, restrict AirDrop to contacts only. Lastly, if you have trouble using AirDrop, try troubleshootting solutions. With these tips, you can use AirDrop like a pro and share files without any hassle.
