AirDrop is not working on devices running Tahoe and iOS 26

Has anyone tried sharing files using AirDrop between devices running macOS Tahoe and iOS 26? Neither my phone nor my laptop can detect each other via AirDrop. I only noticed the issue just now after updating to the latest OS versions yesterday.

MacBook Pro 13″

Many people are reporting the same issue so don't feel alone. I see (37) me too and counting on your post alone.

if your OS and iOS are current, for Continuity issue I would try signing out of your AppleID/Account and back in again to sort the issue.


Sign out of your Apple ID/Account /iCloud on the Mac and back in again and compare your results
