Samsung Quick Share is a new AirDrop-like feature for Galaxy devices. ... A new report has detailed Samsung Quick Share, a local file-sharing service for Galaxy smartphones and tablets that not unlike Apple's AirDrop.
Competition is huge in the phone industry, as we all know. Previously, the competition used to be restricted to hardware and who could have the best hardware, but we’ve progressed from that era. The area of real competition now is with software, and the software experience can now make or break purchase decisions, as companies like Apple and Google very well know. Some would argue the exclusive features Apple has is why they are one of the biggest phone brands. Well, Samsung is trying to match Apple’s features with some of its own implementations. The newest one of these features is Quick Share, Samsung’s upcoming alternative to Apple’s AirDrop....
Quick Share is slated to be a pretty simple and tool for quickly sending files between two Galaxy phones. We were able to get the APK running on a few different Galaxy phones but we were unable to get two files to transfer between the devices. The APK was not meant for our test devices so it’s not surprising it’s not working...
Unlike other services like AirDrop, Quick Share will have a cloud aspect to it. Quick Share will let you temporarily upload files to Samsung Cloud. These files will then be streamed to Samsung Smart Things devices and downloaded locally. These files can be up to 1GB with a total of 2GBs being sent per day.
Samsung isn’t the only company with a service like this on the market or in the works. Google is currently working on a feature called Nearby Sharing as part of the Google Play Services. This could theoretically support every supported Android phone and ChromeOS.
