Moving files between two Android devices doesn't involve too many problems because there are always apps that make the job easier. All right now there is no traditional way for Android to move large files at high speed as Android Beam, the solution that used Bluetooth and NFC, ran out of steam after Google abandoned its development (except it was slow). So play it create a standard app, something Google has already voted for.
We've read the first details of this so-called "Android AirDrop" installed on FreshShare, a standard data exchange platform using WiFi that Google is currently building. Your goal is to be Local shipping system is very simple and efficient since Apple has iOS and MacOS, but we don't know when it will be available. Of course, the latest name change can await the imminent release.
Sharing Nearby, transfer between nearby Android
Putting "Nearby" on or off in the name of a transfer is no accident: as XDA Developers discovered after updating the latest Apk for Google Play services, the file-sharing rule would require both devices to be too close to run. In fact, he probably stuck: the system itself cuts to less than half a meter (one foot, more than 30 centimeters) is a great distance between devices.
We don't know when it will arrive on Android and when Nearby Sharing (probably translated as Near Exchange) will arrive on devices from Android 10. Or, because it is included in the Google Play services app, it will be easier for the new system to transfer File Transfer to Devices many Android with GMS update or Google mobile services. This could mean that those devices without GMS will be left for closer sharing.
It's not enough to search for nearby devices and close sharing to quickly share large files
In XDA Developers have posted some screenshots of how the future news works. The nearest exchange system will be included in the sharing menu and find out which devices are compatible they are within the scope of the app (something like AirDrop on Apple). It is not enough to select a nearby device and have both Android swap Bluetooth WiFi data and connect between them (of course WiFi Direct) and use high speed connection so that large files can be transferred properly. Whenever they are 30 inches: This way it will be avoided that anyone can interfere with cell phones or tablets not involved in the action. Something is happening with AirDrop in densely populated areas.
Given the name change (from Quick Response to Nearby Sharing), and how the signal is measured, wouldn't be surprising if Google released this new way to swap files. Hopefully it keeps reaching the majority of Android with Google options, installed on all certified phones.
