No airdrop accept/decline notification

When using airdrop the receiving computer doesn't show the popup accept/decline notification. There's a notification sound, but no popup notification & so no way to accept. Does anyone know why and how to fix? This is a real hassle for me as I need to use it all the time and it is sooo flakey. Thank you.

Yes, but nothing was happening at the phone end minutes later. This is a bad design flaw IMO, feedback is essential and a progress ring on the iPhone should happen immediately transfer initiates. I rebooted the phone and it is working now. I have had this glitch repeatedly, maybe 15 times over the past 6 months. It is beyond a joke and must be happening to many many other users as well.
