Since Nearby sharing uses a device-to-image transfer process, it allows you to share content without a Wi-Fi connection. When changing content, Near Share automatically selects the best protocol for speed and efficiency, whether it’s Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Power, or Wi-Fi Direct.
This allows you to share content with other nearby Android devices instead of sending emails or newsletters. When you can not send information to other neighbors, you can share it with everyone on your list.
Files like videos, photos, documents, links, and social media posts will work with Nearby Share. It’s an easy and simple way to share files. Now you don’t have to compromise with poor quality by sharing pictures from any third-party application.
