Of all the things you can do with an iPhone or iPad, the Airdrop functionality is one that has proven to be useful when it comes to quickly sharing files with other iPhones, iPads and Mac devices that are available nearby.

Nine years after Apple first introduced Airdrop, Google is finally rolling out a similar feature called ‘Nearby Share’ that will be available on all Android phones. The following post will help you check if you have Nearby Share available on your Android phone.
