Bluetooth (Wifi not enough!) is required for AirDrop to work between a Mac and an iPhone. This is because AirDrop uses Bluetooth to establish a direct connection between the two devices, which allows for the transfer of files without the need for an internet connection.
Here are the steps on how to AirDrop from a Mac to an iPhone using Bluetooth:
- Make sure that both your Mac and iPhone are turned on and within Bluetooth range of each other.
- On your Mac, open the Finder window and locate the file or files that you want to send.
- Control-click on the file or files, and then select Share > AirDrop.
- In the AirDrop window, select the iPhone that you want to send the file or files to.
- On your iPhone, a notification will appear asking you to accept the AirDrop request. Tap Accept.
- The file or files will be transferred to your iPhone.
If you are having trouble using AirDrop, make sure that both your Mac and iPhone are running the latest version of macOS and iOS, and that Bluetooth is turned on and working properly on both devices. You can also try restarting both devices and see if that helps.
