From the article below.


If you tap Accept, the AirDrop will come through within the same app it was sent from. For example, photos appear in the Photos app and websites open in Safari. App links open in the App Store so you can download or purchase the app.

in Downloads folder (dumb place) on Mac, I finally found the 3 photos I'm trying to transfer from photos on iPhone to photos library on Mac, but I don't see where to Accept, and do not see that option on Photos on Mac. Photos open in preview, but how can I get them into photo library on Mac so I can edit?

And how did something that was automatic for so long suddenly become practically impossible through time-consuming multiple steps?? How can I shorten this process to automatic again??
