"Police caution parents over iPhone NameDrop security risks following Apple iOS update"

Law enforcement agencies are warning iPhone users about the security concerns related to Apple's new NameDrop feature, which allows users to quickly share contact information with nearby iPhones or Apple Watches. Concerns have been raised that users, including children, may unwittingly divulge contact information with others. Several police departments have issued warnings and advised users to adjust their settings to keep their contact information safe. However, experts argue that the fears over NameDrop are unnecessary, as the feature requires physical access to an unlocked phone to access contact information.
