Here’s a quick tip for you: set your AirDrop’s settings to “Contacts Only” to avoid having anyone near you send you files that might be offensive or otherwise. The Verge writer Josh Lowensohn demonstrated how easily you can send files through AirDrop. He sent AirDrop photos of sloths wearing spacesuits to commuters on a train in San Francisco. Of course, curiosity got to them and the file was downloaded by some. While his trick was harmless, imagine what others can do with this feature. So, it’s best you turn AirDrop’s setting off or to “Contacts Only.” You can do so by heading to the control center and clicking on the AirDrop icon.
