Google is pushing Quick Share closer to the same kind of seamless file sharing that iPhone users already know through AirDrop. The latest expansion brings that direction to more Android devices from OnePlus, Oppo, and Honor, with support expected to arrive soon on several flagship models.
The move matters because cross-platform file transfer has long been one of the friction points between Android and iPhone users. In many cases, people still rely on third-party apps or cloud services, but the wider rollout of Quick Share interoperability is making direct sharing feel far more practical.
More brands are joining the rollout
Google announced the expansion during The Android Show: I/O Edition. The company did not provide a detailed launch timetable for each phone, so owners will need to wait for their specific device to be enabled.
Among the next devices in line are the Oppo Find X8 series, OnePlus 15, Honor Magic V6, and Honor Magic8 Pro. Once support arrives, these phones will be able to share files directly with iPhone through Quick Share.
Google is also preparing the feature for additional Samsung devices. The list includes the Galaxy S25 series, Galaxy S24 lineup, Galaxy Z Fold7, Galaxy Z Flip7, Galaxy Z Fold6, and Galaxy Z TriFold.
The rollout is expanding step by step
This is not the first wave of Quick Share-AirDrop compatibility. Google had already brought the feature to the Pixel 10 series before extending it to older Pixel models, the Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup, and then devices such as the Oppo Find X9 Ultra and vivo X300 Ultra.
Pixel 8a and Oppo Find N6 are also already supported. That pattern shows a staged rollout rather than a single broad release across every Android phone at once.
Why this matters for users
The main appeal is simple: easier file sharing between Android and iPhone without extra steps. For people who move between both ecosystems, that can reduce the need for workarounds that have often slowed down everyday sharing.
As more manufacturers join in, the feature becomes more useful in mixed-device environments. It also moves Quick Share closer to becoming a practical default for short-range file transfer beyond a single brand ecosystem.
Samsung remains an important part of the picture
Samsung still gets a substantial share of the announced support. That is significant because Samsung is one of the largest Android makers, and wider Galaxy compatibility could help speed up adoption.
Google has now pointed to support across both regular Galaxy S models and foldable devices. With the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S24, Z Fold6, Fold7, Flip7, and Z TriFold all on the list, Samsung’s role in the rollout remains central.
For now, the only detail that remains unclear is timing. Google has said the support is coming soon, but it has not shared a specific date for each model.
