Some law enforcement agencies are encouraging iPhone users to be cautious following a new update.

    The whole point of NameDrop is to add a new contact. So by definition it literally won’t be usable for airdrop if airdrop is set to contacts only.

        I have. I’ve accidentally initiated NameDrop between my personal and work phones, just by having them in the same pocket. Both set to Contacts Only.

        Imagine a scenario where kids put all their phones in a bad before class or something.
