I keep seeing "share nearby" in Android 13 share screens and it creeps me out. I've been wondering if there is a way to disable it. I still use wired earbuds and made sure to buy a phone that supports them.
It needs consent from both parties and just uses stuff like Bluetooth or WiFi, what's the problem with it? You can pin other stuff to the top to force it down the list.
The main thing is that it's obtrusive and it feels like Google is shoving it at me, which has to be nefarious. It hadn't occurred to me to pin other stuff. I'd rather just get rid of the nearby feature since I'm never going to use it.
