I'm constantly getting random AirDrop requests on my iPhone and it's really annoying. I don't know how to turn it off and it's starting to affect my battery life too. How can I stop these random AirDrop requests?

On iOS devices, you can set AirDrop to "Receiving Off," which effectively hides your device from nearby users.

For Mac users, the equivalent setting is labeled as "No One," ensuring that your device remains invisible to those around you.

Alternatively, you can opt for the "Contacts Only" option, which allows only your contacts to see your device via AirDrop, thus preventing strangers from sending you unwanted content.
