Drop feature missing from iOS Edge

Question

Drop was working earlier back in April, on my desktop I can still see content from then that was dropped and synced from my iPhone. Tried to drop another photo today. Opened the photo and selected the share icon, tapped on Edge and it initially offered Drop, but when I selected it it indicated it had a problem opening Edge (even though it did open Edge). Closed Edge and tried again, Drop option no longer shows, if I select Edge it only offers to open it in Edge, not to Drop it. I've restarted the phone and made sure that Edge app was up to date. I've also used the edge://flags/#edge-drops and changed the two drop flags from Default to Enabled, restarted the app and still no Drop. Phone is an iPhone 13 running iOS 16.5

Good day TA-John, thanks for your question. I am glad to be able to provide assistance to you today. Try to check and replicate the issue on the beta or dev version via the link below if you will be able to join the TestFlight and for the current version that you are using, if you have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Edge and if it is still the same you can also send a feedback to the team that is working on Edge for them to have a look at this issue and hopefully this will be corrected on the next update and to send it tap the 3 dots > Help and feedback.

The uninstall/reinstall did nothing. The links are not useful as I can't join the beta test group without an invite code. Submitted a help & feedback request.
