Android owners receive free phone upgrade that makes sharing with friends a lot easier – especially those on Samsung
To use Quick Share, you must first make sure your device is updated to the latest software and has Wi-Fi switched on.
Step 1. Make sure the Quick Share feature is turned on for both phones.
To turn it on, open the notification panel, swipe downwards, and then tap Quick Share to activate it. It will appear blue when it's activated.
If the Quick Share icon does not appear in your Quick settings panel, you may need to add it.
Step 2. Launch the Gallery app and select an image.
Tap the Share button and select a device to transfer the image. Accept the file transfer request on the other device.
Step 3. If you’re having trouble connecting to another device, swipe down from the top of your screen to open Quick Settings, and then touch and hold the Quick Share icon.
Tap the switch next to "Show my position to others" to let nearby devices see your device when they are using Quick Share.
This option will only show if Quick Share is enabled.
The "Show my position to others" option is only available on select models.
If you are unable to locate your device ensure you have enabled your phone or tablet visibility.
To enable this setting head into your Settings > Connections > toggle on Phone Visibility.
It's important to note: you can only share files with up to five devices at once.
