A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Quoting the teaser text

Google’s Pixel 10 works with AirDrop, and other phones should follow later.

The manufacturer of the phone obviously needs to actually implement it. So if your phone is old and not using an up to date OS or if they just disable the feature, then it wont work.
