As per the latest reports, the feature is now rolling out for Play Store and has the ability to share apps with nearby Android devices. Earlier in December, Google said, using the Nearby Share is very easy. You need to open the Play Store, go to Menu and select the apps you want to share. The other device should accept the apps. To use this feature, your phone must run Google Play Store on version 24.0 or latest.
How to use Nearby Share Feature to Share Android Files?
Here, we will explain to you in detail how you can use the new feature to share Android apps.
First, open Google Play Store on your device. At the top left corner, click on the three lines and open the Menu. From the list, click on My apps & Games. There you will see an option of “Share” at last, before Update, Installed, and Library. Click on share Now, you will see two options, “Send” and “Receive.” When you select the “Send” option, choose a recipient. Then the other person will get a request for pairing.
