Air Drop?

My wife “air dropped” a few photos from her iPad to mine. Her iPad indicated the photos were “dropped.” I can’t find the photos on my iPad. Where did they go? How can I find them?

iPad Wi-Fi, iOS 12

When you receive an AirDrop, it will display a prompt asking if you would like to accept the photos. If you hit cancel, the photos will not save. If you accept, they should appear in your photo library. Also, check to make sure your AirDrop receiving is on. She may have seen that your device was online, but your device will not be able to accept content unless receiving is on. To turn it on, open control center, press and hold the folder with WiFi, airplane mode, etc, tap airdrop, and choose to enable receiving from your contacts, or everyone. Let me know if you have any other questions. I hope this helps!
