Quick Share could soon get Nearby Share’s “use mobile data” toggle. Earlier this year, Google announced the merger of Android’s Nearby Share with Samsung’s Quick Share. Now, the unified version is preparing to retain a useful feature.
AndroidAuthority discovered that Quick Share could soon add a “use mobile data” toggle for even faster file sharing. The latest Google Play Services Beta brings a toggle to enable file transmission over mobile data.
Android’s Nearby Share had a mobile data file-sharing toggle. When enabled, it allowed a “Data may be used for small files” as part of making sharing faster. The unified Quick Share removed the toggle, but it will finally return to the function.
Quick Share intelligently utilizes Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for file sharing. If the file’s size is not much, it would be transmitted over Bluetooth. Larger files usually transfer through Wi-Fi by pairing both devices with each other via Hotspot and Wi-Fi.
Sometimes, the lack of a proper network or functional glitches ruin the sharing experience. In that case, the accessibility to mobile data would work as a bridge, allowing Quick Share to use an internet connection for data and file transmission.
The toggle is currently barred by strings and flags within the app’s code. Tinkering those flags would immediately make the new toggle accessible. However, general availability will remain due with a future release of the app.
