Mac won't accept AirDrop from iPhone

Since updating my iPhone to iOS 15, I have been unable to AirDrop photos from my phone to my iMac. On the phone, the iMac is visible as a device, but after selecting it, the progress circle just keeps saying Waiting. I have AirDrop on the Mac set to Everyone.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Nevermind. Powercycling the phone fixed it.
