Airdrop declined

Can't airdrop between my iPhone 7 and my iPad air.

  1. Both are using IOS 12.0.1.
  2. They both see each other but when I click on the airdrop feature I get a "Declined" message.
  3. Airdrop is set to "Everyone"
  4. Both on the same wifi and Bluethooth is ON
  5. Use to work well before IOS 12.

I have the same problem since the iOS 12 upgrade. I used to airdrop between my iPhone and iPad all the time and now it immediately shows “Declined”. I’ve upgraded both devices to the latest iOS and rebooted both.
