NameDrop, wie funktioniert es? Und wofür kannst du es nutzen?
Namedrop ist eine Funktion, die von Apple in iOS 17 eingeführt hat, um den Austausch von Kontaktinformationen zwischen zwei iPhones/Apple Watches zu erleichtern. Diese Funktion baut auf AirDrop auf, der bestehenden Methode zum drahtlosen Austausch von Dateien zwischen zwei Apple-Geräten.

My experience so far with the NameDrop-style pass sharing in the Wallet app on iOS 17.2, where you bring phones together to share a pass:

0% success rate 👎

It does the nice animation on both devices and the button to share the pass is displayed, but after tapping the button it just closes as though it completed it, except the other device waits forever and never receives the pass. A manual AirDrop works. So close, Apple, so close.

📢 In the latest episode of the @sharedsecurity Podcast, we address the rumors circulating around the new iOS 17 NameDrop feature.

We discuss the misconceptions, debunk misinformation, and provide insights into how Apple's intention to enhance user experience is often misunderstood.

As someone who uses both a work and personal phone, I encountered the NameDrop feature firsthand and decided to disable it for convenience and NOT for privacy reasons. It's crucial to critically analyze information and separate the facts from the noise, even when its posted by law enforcement!

Join me in this informative discussion by tuning in to the full episode!

iOS 17.2 NameDrop allows you to "quickly share boarding passes, movie tickets, and other Wallet app passes with another iPhone user."

Love this. Useful when traveling with a group/family and you bought all the tix.

Począwszy od nadchodzącej aktualizacji oprogramowania iOS 17.2, którego wersję RC dostaliśmy w tym tygodniu, Apple udostępni nową funkcja podobna do NameDrop, która umożliwi użytkownikom iPhone’ów szybkie udostępnianie kart pokładowych, biletów do kina i innych.

Aby z niej skorzystać, będziemy musieli otworzyć aplikację Wallet i tąpnąć w daną kartę, którą chcemy udostępnić. Następnie przytrzymać iPhone’a w pobliżu innego iPhone’a, co spowoduje pojawienie się przycisku „Udostępnij” poniżej karty pokładowej.

Samo udostępnienie, po użyciu wspomnianego przycisku, odbędzie się za pośrednictwem AirDopa.

Aż chce się dopisać – w końcu!

I feel bad for all the developers at #Apple who worked on #NameDrop and the near field sharing stuff — since all these people are just shutting it off with all the misinformation and fear-mongering going on.

Telling people the truth in every case has resulted in the reply "well I'm just going to keep it off anyway”.

This whole debacle is exactly the sort of thing I had in mind when I said Apple needs to work on its reputation. They have coasted on a generally good public opinion, but they are allowing that to get corroded — and that positive opinion is hard to regain once lost. macworld.com/article/2155780/l

Gonna keep sharing this until the disinformation goes away. And nice to see this is getting independent testing and reporting outside of Apple blogs and news sites: “No, Apple’s NameDrop feature does not automatically share your contact information with other nearby iPhone users.”

I’m happy to report that the “#iOS 17’s #NameDrop feature is going to steal your information and abduct your children” posts have finally hit my Facebook feed. 🫠

Smh at the hysteria over the Apple non-issue.

Große Aufregung um die Funktion, die Apple mit 17.1 und watchOS 10.1 eingeführt hat. In den USA hatten unter anderem die Polizei gewarnt - allerdings, ohne die Funktion wirklich zu verstehen: winfuture.de/news,139837.html?
