Samsung has announced the roll out of AirDrop support to the Galaxy smartphones, making it easier for users to share content between devices using Quick Share. The feature will begin rolling out from March 23.

Google’s Quick Share compatible with Apple’s AirDrop on Pixel 10 phone
In November last year, Google rolled out a new feature making it possible for Pixel 10 owners to share files directly with iPhones through AirDrop. The feature works both ways—one can send files to an iPhone and receive them back, all without jumping through hoops or using workarounds.The setup is straightforward. iPhone users need to set AirDrop to “Everyone for 10 Minutes” mode, and then Pixel devices show up as sharing targets. On the flip side, Pixel owners can receive AirDropped files from iPhones by enabling a similar visibility setting in Quick Share. The feature works with iPhones, iPads, and Macs.
