#AirdropSafetyGuide To ensure safety when using AirDrop, prioritize your device's security by limiting who can receive files from your device. Set AirDrop to "Contacts Only" or disable it entirely when not in use, especially in public places. Always verify the sender before accepting an AirDrop, and be cautious of suspicious files, potentially malicious attachments.

Detailed Safety Measures:

Limit AirDrop Access:

Set to "Contacts Only": This prevents strangers from sending you unsolicited files, as suggested by IPVanish.

Disable in Public: Turn off AirDrop when not needed, especially in public places where you might be near unauthorized devices.

Use Screen Time: If you share your device with others, use Apple's Screen Time to block unauthorized users from sending files.

Verify Senders:

Always Confirm: Before accepting an AirDrop, verify with the sender that they are who they claim to be, as suggested by NordVPN.

Be wary of unprompted transfers: Refuse AirDrop requests from unknown senders.

Check the sender's identity: AirDrop displays the sender's name and photo (if available in your contacts).
