Google today announced that it is rolling out Nearby Share — its AirDrop competitor — to select Pixel and Samsung phones. The rollout will soon expand to more devices on Android 6.0 and newer.
After some time as a limited beta, which recently expanded to more testers, Google has today announced that it is rolling out Nearby Share – an AirDrop competitor – to Android 6.0 phones and newer. The search giant says that the feature has been in development for years and that it has been a highly requested feature. The feature lets users easily share “files, links, pictures, and more” with other Android users. The company says that the feature negates the need to go through the long process of searching for a contact, selecting files, and other steps when users want to share files or other content with someone in close proximity.
