Airdrop not working since getting new iPhone X


airdrop used work fine between iphone 6 , mac os x running el capitan. however, unable establish connection @ using new iphone x. have tried signing in , out of icloud, hard reset of iphone, made sure devices discoverable everyone, bluetooth on, wifi on, personal hotspot off, etc.

yet when try share photo iphone via airdrop, shows message "airdrop. share instantly people nearby. if turn on aidrop control center on ios or finder on mac, you'll see names here. tap share." have tapped dozens of times. no devices ever showing up. has been way since day 1 of owning iphone x.
