Police want parents to disable this feature on their kids iPhones, here’s why

Share via:

Apple iOS 17 introduces new features and changes, including the ‘NameDrop’ feature that allows easy exchange of contact information, photos, etc. A local police division in Ohio advises parents to turn off this feature to protect their kids’ safety and privacy. Disabling ‘NameDrop’ can prevent the easy sharing of data like photos, phone numbers, and addresses. To disable ‘NameDrop’ on your iPhone, go to Settings, tap on General, then AirDrop, and turn off the toggle switch. Even though there is some user input required to share contact information, disabling the feature on kids’ phones is a wise choice for added safety and data protection.
