How to share the file with others using Quick Share?
You can share and receive contents with someone when you use Quick Share. Quick Share allows for quick and seamless file sharing between compatible devices without needing an internet connection, Bluetooth, or third-party apps. You can share multiple files at once, like photos, videos, and documents, without needing to select them one by one.
To share the file with others using Quick Share, please refer to the following steps:
1. Open the content, like a photo or webpage from any app. Quick Share has no limit on content size or number of files;
2. Tap the sharing option or icon, and tap the Quick Share icon;
3. Make sure the device you want to share with is nearby;
4. Tap the device you want to share with. If the device you want to share with isn’t listed, you can also share your file with a QR code. To generate a QR code, tap [Use QR code]. Nearby Android devices can scan the QR code to get connected and receive the files;
5. Wait for the other device to accept your sharing request. To cancel an in-progress transfer, tap the same device again;
6. During the transfer, you can leave the screen and the transfer will continue. You’ll get a notification in your notification tray when you leave the status, cancel, or go back to the transfer screen from that notification;
7. To select multiple receivers, you can tap more than one device. Due to technical constraints, simultaneous sharing is only supported on selected device models. In other cases, transfers will be queued and receivers you select later will get the transfer request when previous transfers are completed.
Tips:

2. When you scan the QR code on the sending device, the receiving device appears on the sender device’s screen. It automatically connects and receives the content;
