Google now has made Android’s Nearby Share feature available for Windows PCs in nearly all countries around the world, signalling a significant increase in its accessibility.
“We are very excited to announce that Nearby Share for Windows is now available worldwide so that even more of your devices can work better together,” Google wrote in a blog post.
Android users can use Nearby Share to wirelessly share files with their PCs, whether desktops or laptops and through Android’s native menus.
Google initially restricted the feature to a few countries, with a primary focus on the United States, IANS reported from New Delhi.
According to Google’s support page, Nearby Share Beta for Windows PCs is now available in the United States and most other countries around the world; however, support is currently unavailable in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Syria.
Users can easily configure Nearby Share Beta for Windows by downloading and installing the app on their computers.
