minus-square B0rax ( @B0rax@feddit.de ) linkfedilink3•11 months agoThat is not true, airdrop can stay on indefinitely when set to „contacts“ which is enough for NameDrop.
minus-square lud ( @lud@lemm.ee ) linkfedilink3•11 months agoCan you then share it to everyone using namedrop that’s not in your contacts?
minus-square snowe ( @snowe@programming.dev ) linkfedilink1•11 months agoThe whole point of NameDrop is to add a new contact. So by definition it literally won’t be usable for airdrop if airdrop is set to contacts only.

minus-square B0rax ( @B0rax@feddit.de ) linkfedilink1•11 months agoYes exactly. You don’t need to change the airdrop setting to use it.
minus-square MostlyBlindGamer ( @MostlyBlindGamer@rblind.com ) linkfedilinkEnglish1•11 months agoI have. I’ve accidentally initiated NameDrop between my personal and work phones, just by having them in the same pocket. Both set to Contacts Only. Imagine a scenario where kids put all their phones in a bad before class or something.

Have you tried it?
