unable to airdrop from mac to iPhone

Hi Community,


i´m trying to airdrop Photos from MacBookPro Retina Late 2013 to iPhone 6. When i choose the Photo in the Photos App and airdrop it nothing really happens. Airdrop can't find my iPhone. Bluetooth/wlan is switched on. Can anybody help me to get rid of this issue?


Hand off for example works very well...


thx

iPhone 6, iOS 9.2

What are your preferences for Air Drop on your iPhone or Mac?

Are you trying to air drop by sharing from Photos or from the Finder?

Is the recipient in your Contacts?


Use AirDrop to send content from your Mac - Apple Support


If you are air-dropping from the Photos Library Share menu, the dropped photo will not appear on your iPhone, if it has already been added to the iPhone, for example, if iCloud Photo Library or My Photo Stream are active.
