Google and Samsung might be merging Nearby Share and Quick Share
Google's Nearby Share service could be rebranded as Quick Share, which is the same name as Samsung's file sharing service.
Great, now partner with Microsoft and merge it with Windows so the majority of Android users might finally stop emailing themselves, or sending files through their messaging app of choice
Or just use fucking Warpinator its 10 times faster. Only beaten by cable connection.
IMO if they could make the options more easily understood or let users select the way the files needs to be shared.
I have often found that Nearby would be using F* Bluetooth to send files.
Has anyone tried LocalSend? Not android specific, not sure about Windows tho
Local send is better than everything else, including nearby share (both the windows version and the android one). And it's fastest by far.
I've found photon to be the fastest for me
but I use warpinator as it has additional security considerations and automatic file send and receive (without confirmation)
@MayonnaiseArch @rhythmisaprancer just tried it against quick share, but it took a while compared to quick share(same file, same wifi network) any reason why?
I use it and like it. The only time I had trouble was as a moved very big archives from one pc to a laptop it didn't work.
