2. How to enable or disable AirDrop from iPhone Xs or iPhone Xs Max Settings

When we buy a phone, the first thing we look at is how it is used because in this way we can get the most out of all its functions. In the case that we have an iPhone, we will have realized that as they are updating the operating system, the way of doing things can vary ..

There is no doubt that with the passage of time, more and more new features offered by phones. Gone are the terminals that only allow us to call and send messages , to give way to the new generations in which we can do many things, such as even creating our own avatar.

One of the most interesting features that iPhone offers us is AirDrop. Thanks to this function we can share content from applications such as photos, contacts, safari etc, between Apple devices quickly and easily. In the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max, we have the possibility to access AirDrop from the control center or from the phone settings. Next, we explain how to activate or deactivate this function from both sides..
