Sharing files between Android and iPhone is set to get easier, with Google announcing support for more devices getting Quick Share support for iPhones. The feature, which was first announced by Google last year, was only available to Pixel 10 users in the beginning but is now moving to OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, Samsung, Xiaomi, and Honor devices.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Ahead of the Google I\/O 2026<\/a> event, the tech giant conducted the Android Show, where it unveiled major new changes coming to Android while also expanding support for Quick Share compatibility with AirDrop to more devices.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Here’s the list of devices that currently support Quick Share compatibility with AirDrop:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Google did not include its own Pixel 9a or Pixel 8 lineup in the list of devices that have AirDrop support.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The tech giant also confirmed that a number of phones, including last-generation Samsung flagships, are expected to get support for AirDrop<\/a> via Quick Share soon. This list includes:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Google has also announced a workaround for smartphones that do not currently support AirDrop integration. The company is bringing a QR code-based sharing system where users can generate a QR code through Quick Share on Android, which can be scanned by iPhone or Mac users to download the files via their browser.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Google notes that these transfers are end-to-end encrypted and files remain available for download for up to 24 hours. The tech giant has also confirmed plans to integrate Quick Share<\/a> directly into third-party apps in the future, including WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The cross-device compatibility feature allows Android phones to directly share files with iPhones, iPads, and macOS devices by using a hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) local wireless architecture. Google says it uses built-in security protections and peer-to-peer transfers to ensure that the shared content is not routed through external servers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In order to send files to Android phones, iPhone or Mac users need to enable \u201cEveryone for 10 minutes\u201d in AirDrop settings. Meanwhile, Android users can simply open the content that they want to forward to the iPhone, tap Share, select Quick Share, and choose the nearby Apple<\/a> device.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sharing files between Android and iPhone is set to get easier, with Google announcing support for more devices getting Quick Share support for iPhones.
