What is mail drop on apple
Mail Drop is a feature in Apple's Mail app on iOS and macOS devices that allows you to send large files or files that are too big to send via email. When you try to send a file that exceeds the email attachment size limit (typically 20-25 MB), Mail Drop will prompt you to use this feature.
Here's how it works:
- You try to send a large file as an email attachment, but it exceeds the attachment size limit.
- Mail Drop kicks in and asks if you want to use the feature to send the file.
- You agree, and Mail Drop generates a unique link that you can share with the recipient.
- The recipient receives an email with a link to download the file from Apple's servers.
- The recipient can then download the file from the link, without having to worry about the file size or attachment limits.
Mail Drop is a convenient way to share large files, as it:
- Avoids the need to split large files into smaller parts
- Eliminates the risk of file corruption during transmission
- Allows recipients to download files at their convenience
- Is secure, as files are stored on Apple's servers and encrypted
To use Mail Drop, make sure you're running the latest version of iOS or macOS, and that you have a stable internet connection.
