Police departments are warning adults to turn off the NameDrop feature on their iPhones and their children's devices, but there is no need to worry about it being a security risk.
NameDrop is an extension of Apple's AirDrop functionality, allowing users to share their contact information with other iPhone users by holding their smartphones together.
Consent is required throughout the NameDrop process and contact sharing will be canceled if the smartphones are moved apart or if the device is locked.
