I'm trying to use AirDrop to share some files, but I'm not sure how to find and connect to other people's devices. Can someone explain how I can locate and connect to nearby devices using AirDrop?

    When sharing content with someone, you can identify them based on their display.

    If the recipient is listed in your Contacts, their name will be accompanied by an image.

    This visual cue helps in quickly recognizing the person you're sharing with.

    Both you and your contact must be using an iPhone that runs on iOS 17 for this feature to work.
