 I am experiencing a frustrating issue with Quick Share. Despite waiting several minutes, it is unable to detect any nearby devices when I try to share files. However, I can still receive files from other devices without any problems. This issue occurs every time I use the feature, and it is becoming quite irritating.

Please, Samsung, look into this issue and resolve it in a future update. I would greatly appreciate a fix as soon as possible.

Yes, I know how to use this feature. I've tried several methods, but it seems like the issue is due to poor optimization.
