About

AirDrop is a proprietary, free-to-use file sharing feature originating from the United States, designed to wirelessly send documents, photos, videos, websites, and map locations to nearby Apple devices such as iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac. It is seamlessly integrated into iOS and requires no registration for use. While highly convenient for its intended ecosystem, user feedback notes its inherent incompatibility with Android, Linux, and Windows platforms. Despite this, the community has explored methods, like tutorials, to enable AirDrop on unsupported Macs and Hackintoshes. It is broadly categorized under tags like wifi-file-sharing, File Sharing, share-files, nearby-file-sharing, and File Share.
