AirDrop availability on Apple TV 4K Good day, reader(s)! So, I’m thinking of getting an Apple TV 4K and I was wondering whether is it possible to AirDrop videos across my iDevices so that I can watch it on the connected TV? Now, I know that AirPlay is an option, but in this case, I specifically would like to prefer AirDrop-ing and l playing the video files natively on the Apple TV 4K. Thanks!
