TL;DR
- An Android Authority teardown has uncovered just how Quick Share will work for iPhones.
- Android owners can share a QR code with iPhone users to let them download files.
- However, files shared with iPhone users via Quick Share will first be uploaded to the cloud and retained for 24 hours.
We’ve known since last year that Google is working on bringing Quick Share to iOS and MacOS. We recently discovered more evidence of the feature coming to iPhones, as well as hints that senders would need to sign in to their Google account. At the time, we weren’t sure how this would all work. But it now looks like we have an answer.
