I wonder if Apple will lock it down further. If they did, it could cause some backlash from users of older devices that are no longer receiving updates.
That being said, there is already an open source option that is completely cross-platform in LocalSend.
Because people with iPhones, famously, will refuse to even try to include anyone without an iPhone if it means they need to do anything whatsoever, such as install a new app
People are hesitant to install apps. But, when you do install it for them. They delete them immediately thinking its useless and and will waste battery for no reason.

Indeed, this is what I use… Jist i stall Airdrop ffs.
Zero chance of me using Airdop, similary if iMessage was opened, zero chance there as well.
As in, it’s Airdrop compatible but OS agnostic?
More like cross platform local wifi based file, clipboard sharing app.
I figured.
That great, if you’re both connected to the same WiFi network and LocalSend comes pre-installed on both of your devices.
What does it need to be pre-installed?

Because no one is going to install an app just to receive a photo from you.
I use it all the time between my own devices
Cool!
You think it’s single use? Only works the one time? Really?

but then they have like 80 garbage apps that do actually do that, make it make sense…
