Google has been working on improving its Quick Share functionality for some time now. The company has already enabled quick file transfers between your Android device and Windows PC or Chromebook. According to reports, Google is also working on the ability to share files with iOS and macOS devices.
In any case, the latest update to Quick Share is now being released to some users with a new interface, very similar to the one that Samsung devices running One UI 8 have. The most notable change is the split between “Send” and “Receive” modes. There’s a button to switch between the modes at the bottom of the screen.
New Quick Share
Once you open up Quick Share, the Receive mode will appear by default. It now highlights your device’s name more prominently, while requests from other people sending you files are more easily visible and accessible.
As for the Send tab, it now integrates a file picker that allows you to choose multiple files from your device, and they don’t have to be the same file type either. A preview is also available before you send the files.
