Notes file refuses to AirDrop

Hello,

I am trying to AirDrop a rather big notes file, but it either times out or the notes app just ends up crashing entirely. Any ways to get around this? Thanks.

Greetings IcedLemondrops!


Looks like you are running into some trouble when trying to AirDrop a large file. We want to help get that process completed for you! One of the main things that can cause this type of timeout is losing connection between the devices. When you are trying to do that transfer, are the devices near each other with a strong Wi-Fi signal? Also have you tried testing this issue with other files, or does it seem to just be this one that has the issue? Are you able to break up this file potentially to transfer it in separate parts? Those answers can help us determine the cause and next steps.


Take care!
