Unable to airdrop contact iOS v17
Before update to iOS v17 I was able to airdrop specific contacts info (not my info). I am unable to do so since update. I need to send a contact to my spouse in the same home and using WiFi.
iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

The problem is resolved. I failed to scroll to the bottom of the screen. I don’t recall the need to do this prior to the release of v17. Probably just brain-fog. Thanks for responding with your detailed tips.
Hello Sobeitsayi,
To start, you'll want to add more specific detail to your post. What is preventing you from sharing a contact via AirDrop? When you go into a contact, and select Share Contact towards the bottom and then Done, is AirDrop not coming up as one of the available options in the Share Sheet? Is the AirDrop option there, but when you select it nothing happens? Does it open up the AirDrop search, but doesn't find any devices? Does it list available devices but give you some sort of error when trying to complete the transfer? Etc.
Details like these will help give the community a better idea of what exactly you're seeing so members can provide more relevant responses.
In the meantime , here's some basics on using AirDrop that may help: How to use AirDrop on your iPhone or iPad
Also, if you're still using the original version of iOS 17 on the device make sure to update it to the current version. Apple has released a few new versions since 17.0 originally came out that contain bug and security fixes.
Cheers!
