AirDrop is a feature for sharing photos, videos among devices running iOS, helping iPhone, iPad, or MacBook devices connect quickly. However, sometimes AirDrop encounters errors, preventing you from sharing documents. Don't worry, in this article, I'll share ways to fix AirDrop issues like receiving only, sending only, being hidden, ... with everyone.
1. Toggle Wi-Fi off and on again
Weak internet connection may prevent you from sending photos via AirDrop, disrupting the photo sending process, or preventing you from sending photos altogether. Go to Settings > Select Wi-Fi toggle to turn off and on Wi-Fi again to reconnect and try sending photos via AirDrop again.
2. Power off and on your device
Sometimes your device may encounter unnoticed errors during usage. This is also the simplest yet most effective method. Try it now by holding down the power button + volume up button, then slide to power off > After the device has turned off, press and hold the power button to turn the device back on.
3. Check Do Not Disturb mode
iOS devices may reject sending and receiving data via AirDrop when in Do Not Disturb mode. So, make sure you haven't enabled this mode. Here's what to do:
Open Control Center > Select Focus > Turn off Do Not Disturb mode if it's enabled.
4. Change the way you send photos, videos
Try sending a single photo or video at a time. Sometimes sending multiple photos or videos at once can overload the connection, so let's see how it goes.
5. Reset network settings
If your iPhone still hasn't sent or received photos via AirDrop, try resetting the network settings. Here's how:
Step 1: Go to Settings > Select General > Choose Transfer or Reset iPhone.
Step 2: Select Reset > Choose Reset Network Settings.
