I was trying to airdrop a picture from my iphone to ipad but it did not work. While figuring out what the problem is, I found out that whenever I open “photos” app on my iphone, small phone icon showed up in ipad on its “photos” app. What does this mean? If that sign is showing the two devices are connected, then why airdrop is not working?
