How to see your AirDrop history

As the title says - is there a way to view AirDrop transfer history, either from the sending or receiving side? We're using iPads at a middle school, and would really like to leave AirDrop turned on, however, we are having some trouble with students passing inappropriate notes in class using AirDrop. We're handling it pretty well from a discipline/classroom management angle, but in some he said/she said cases, it would be nice to be able to verify. Does iOS keep a record of AirDrop transactions of any kind? Thanks!

The answer is "no." AirDrop does not keep a log of these transactions so you can audit them later.


You could supervise the devices and turn AirDrop off, no?
