Use AirDrop to transfer Pages documents
With AirDrop, you can wirelessly send documents to a nearby iPhone, iPad, or Mac on the same Wi-Fi network.
Turn on AirDrop:
On a Mac: Click the desktop to switch to the Finder, then choose Go > AirDrop (from the Go menu at the top of the screen). An AirDrop window opens. If Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi is turned off, there’s a button to turn it on.
On iPhone or iPad: Open Control Center. Tap AirDrop, then choose whether to receive items from everyone or only from people in your Contacts app.
Select the document you want to send:
On a Mac: If the document is open, choose Share > Send a copy (from the Share menu at the top of the screen), then choose AirDrop. You can also Control-click a document file on your computer, then choose Share > AirDrop.
On iPhone or iPad: Open the document, tap the Share icon, then tap AirDrop.
Select a recipient.
For more information about using AirDrop, see this Apple Support article.
