The Quick Share feature can be considered the Airdrop of the Android world. But recently, there are evidences of the release of this feature for the iPhone operating system and Apple computers.
Quick Share is a practical feature. Android users can transfer images, videos, links and other files to nearby devices with this feature. This feature is available on Android, ChromeOS and even Windows. But apparently Google plans to expand this functionality further.
According to information published on GitHub, a Google engineer has apparently hinted at the presence of the Quick Share feature in macOS and iOS. The engineer mentions that the Quick Share feature works fine on an Apple device (probably a MacBook Pro).
Although the words of the Google engineer do not confirm the provision of Quick Share in Apple phones and Apple laptops, but apparently Google is working on providing this feature.
Will the release of the Quick Share function on Apple devices really be a practical action or not? Since Quick Share is present in Windows, it will not be difficult to publish it in Apple’s operating system. Although many Android phone users use Windows computers, many others use Apple computers and laptops along with their Android phones.
Many other Android users also use an Apple tablet in addition to their Android phone. For this reason, there are a large number of Android users who can use the Quick Share feature on Google devices.
It has to be seen whether the number of users of the aforementioned Android devices is large enough to encourage Google to provide the Quick Share feature on Apple devices or not. On the other hand, experience has shown that loyal users of the Apple ecosystem do not have much desire to use applications between two platforms. For example, OnePlus and Oppo recently developed a cross-platform file transfer tool that was not well received by Apple device users.
So it can be expected that even if Google releases the Quick Share feature, the target users will be those users who operate between the Android and Apple ecosystems, and the main target will not be all users of the Apple ecosystem.
