Can't airdrop from my iphone to my macbook air.

I currently have Catalina installed and have 7 plus. Both my Mac and my iPhone are set to Everyone on airdrop but my phone isn't finding my mac and airdrop is not showing up in the Finder menu. I have been able to airdrop instantly before so I don't know what changed.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 13

An automatic update or upgrade(?) may have changed the ability for AirDrop to function.


Are both devices fully up-to-date? Restarted?

~ or checked the 'Continuity' settings?
