Fast and free cross-device sharing made simple

Quick Share from Google streamlines local file transfer between Android and PC with cross-device sharing that works in seconds. Using nearby discovery, devices find each other without cables, while encrypted transfers keep content locked end-to-end. It’s a lightweight bridge for photos, videos, documents, and more, built for effortless movement of data across everyday devices.

On Windows, Quick Share from Google simplifies sending with drag-and-drop, context-menu right-click sending, and full folder transfers. It relies on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to establish a fast, local path, so transfers feel instant and private. Setup takes minutes and blends into workflows without learning new tools.

Quick Share from Google centers on proximity: devices within 16 feet can discover each other, then hand off transfers over local radios. Privacy is practical, with device visibility controls that limit who can see your machine and approval prompts before any file lands. Full options, like syncing contact discovery and automatic self-shares, benefit from Google Account sign-in, yet the core pipeline works for ad-hoc sends when you keep radios enabled.

Seamless local sharing across ecosystems

Performance favors quick, local hops: discovery leverages low-energy beacons, while transfers switch to high-throughput links for larger payloads. The app supports background receiving, so incoming files can be accepted from notifications without staying on the foreground window. Reliability upgrades in recent builds improve advertising and connection stability, reducing failed transfers and timeouts that previously interrupted long sends on certain setups. Transfers resume quickly after interruptions, and notifications provide clear actions.

Compared with Microsoft Phone Link, AirDroid, or Send Anywhere, this tool prioritizes simple, local transfers over remote control suites. Strengths include fast local throughput, strong security, and a streamlined workflow. Trade-offs exist: proximity and radios must stay on, certain enterprise networks can impede discovery, and advanced options rely on account sign-in. For everyday device-to-device moves, the balance of speed, safety, and ease is compelling overall.

The easiest path for local transfers

Quick Share from Google delivers fast, secure, and low-friction sharing between nearby devices without cables or clutter. With cross-device discovery, encrypted transfers, and simple mechanics like drag-and-drop, it minimizes steps and maximizes throughput for everyday files and folders. Despite proximity and sign-in caveats, its speed, privacy controls, and background reception make it an essential utility for moving content reliably between phones and PCs.
