Share Your Contact Information With NameDrop

Another cool feature you can use with your new contacts is NameDrop. This feature works similarly to AirDrop in letting you share information wirelessly with other nearby iPhones.

With NameDrop, you can share your Contact Poster or relevant contact information simply by holding your iPhone near someone else’s. The other person’s iPhone will show your contact card and let them easily add your info to their contact list. It’s nice, easy, and far safer than you may think. Unlike AirDrop, NameDrop will only work when your iPhone is really close to another iPhone.

Not only that, but your iPhone has to be unlocked for NameDrop to even start up, and once it does, you still have to tap a Share button to explicitly authorize it before the other person gets your contact information.
