Hey nanamay2000,


It appears that you're having a problem using AirDrop from your iPhone. You're unable to receive, but you can send. Thank you for confirming the troubleshooting you've tried, and we're glad to provide assistance.


How to use AirDrop on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support -- Please review the information in this article paying close attention to any mention to an iPhone 11 or newer (we noticed you've listed an iPhone 12 Pro Max). 


If you're doing everything correctly, please reply back with the answers to the following questions:

Which iOS is your iPhone currently on?

At what point does the ability to receive break down?

Does this happen with everyone, or a particular person?

Are you able to receive another type of item besides photos/contacts?

Have you tried another Wi-Fi connection?


Take care.
