Nowadays, our mobile phones incorporate so many utilities that it is common to not know how some of them work. Thus, many times we do not get the most out of the services offered by our terminals, wasting the most interesting advantages.
For this reason, we are going to tell you in detail what the AirDrop system of Apple devices consists of. This is a very practical, comfortable, useful functionality that brings many advantages for sharing files. If you still send your photos, videos and documents through messages, messaging applications or email, this interests you.
AirDrop is Apple’s own system, created by the company and that is integrated into all its devices, both iPhones and iPads, as well as Apple TV and Mac. It is used to send files between the devices of the bitten apple company, so you will not be able to use it with other terminals from other brands, but only between Apple technology.
You can use it to share all kinds of files, from photos and videos, through documents, music or web links. When you select the option to share a file using AirDrop, a Bluetooth and WiFi connection is established between the two, transmitting the file in question quickly, easily and with very low data consumption. Of course, the main advantage of AirDrop is that the shared files keep their quality intact, something that doesn’t happen if, for example, you send a photo via WhatsApp.
In addition, it is a very secure system, since you can configure who you want to receive files from (anyone or only your contacts) and you must accept receiving a file for it to be opened or downloaded to your terminal. Likewise, shared documents and files are protected by encryption.
