Google’s interpretation of Apple’s AirDrop, Nearby Share, is now officially out of beta for Windows. After some tests, in which more than 1.7 million people participated, the company has decided to release a stable version, which you can download here.
Nearby Share is a very apt name – it basically describes exactly what the whole point is. You can use it to quickly (and easily) share content between Android phones, regardless of manufacturer. And starting today, you can use it to share files between Windows PCs and Android devices.
Since the beta launched, Google says it has seen more than 50 million files transferred between PCs and Android devices.
An estimate of how long it will take to complete transfers is provided with the stable version, as well as an image preview function within device notifications. This is intended to ensure that you can confirm that the correct file is being shared.
Google says it’s working with HP to pre-install the Nearby Share app on “select Windows PCs, like Dragonfly Pro.”
