The airdrop on new iOS!
AirDrop is a feature on iOS devices that allows you to share files, photos, and other content with other nearby iOS or macOS devices. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use AirDrop on your new iOS device:
Enabling AirDrop
- Go to your iPhone or iPad's Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on "General".
- Tap on "AirDrop".
- Select one of the following options:
- "Receiving Off": You won't be able to receive files or content via AirDrop.
- "Receiving On": You'll be able to receive files and content from others, but only from people in your Contacts list.
- "Everyone": You'll be able to receive files and content from anyone nearby, regardless of whether they're in your Contacts list or not.
- "Contacts Only" (default): You'll only be able to receive files and content from people in your Contacts list.
Sending Files via AirDrop
- Open the app or file you want to share (e.g., Photos, Files, Notes, etc.).
- Tap the "Share" icon (a box with an arrow coming out of it).
- Tap "AirDrop" from the share menu.
- Select the device you want to send the file to from the list of nearby devices.
- Wait for the file to transfer. You'll see a progress bar on your screen.
Receiving Files via AirDrop
- On the receiving device, open the "Files" app (or the app associated with the file type you're receiving).
- Tap the "Browse" tab.
- Tap "AirDrop" from the bottom menu.
- You'll see a list of nearby devices that are sharing files via AirDrop.
- Tap the device you want to receive the file from.
- Wait for the file to transfer. You'll see a progress bar on your screen.
Tips and Tricks
- Make sure both devices are running iOS 7 or later and have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled.
- AirDrop only works when both devices are within close proximity (usually within 30 feet).
- You can also use AirDrop to share files with your Mac computer running macOS 10.7 or later.
- If you're having trouble finding a device via AirDrop, try restarting both devices or moving them closer together.
That's it! With these steps, you should be able to use AirDrop on your new iOS device to share files and content with others.
