I would really like to see it become normal for tipping people this way (that isn't at a cash register / tap) but with AirDrop.
I totally agree.
At a parking garage the other day, there was a long line of people trying to get their cars back from the valets because one person was trying to tip with some random app.
"Oh, you need to download this. Yeah, open the App Store. Then download it. Yeah, it take a while. OK, now sign up. --five minutes elapse-- OK, now what's your username so I can send you the money? Did you say 'e' or 'v?' Was that '4114' or '1144?' OK. Sending now..."

It took like ten minutes.
