How to accept an AirDrop

Step 1- AirDrop Alert

You will receive an alert on your smartphone if someone shares something with you via AirDrop.

Step 2- Accept or Decline

You need to “Accept” the request from the “Sender” in order to receive the file or “Decline” if not.

Step 3- App Content Delivery:

By clicking “Accept,” the AirDrop files will go into the same app from which they were received. Photos, for example, will go into Photos. Websites will open in Safari. App links will go to the App Store.

There will never be an Accept or Decline button when you use AirDrop, so if you transfer something from your iPhone to your Mac, it will just be delivered to you automatically. Make sure you log into your iPhone and Mac with the same Apple ID to ensure a smooth transfer.

Note:
If you can’t change Receiving Off:

  1. Select Screen Time from the Settings menu.
  2. Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions.
  3. Tap Allowed Apps and make sure AirDrop is turned on.
