\nIn case you don\u2019t know, Nearby Share is Android\u2019s answer to Apple AirDrop. It lets you send files from one device to another with just a few taps. You don\u2019t have to dig into the Bluetooth settings and pair devices. This has been a feature in Android since 2020, and it\u2019s become a preferred method of sharing files.
\nNearby Share will let you send files to your devices without needing to accept it
\nNearby Share is great, but there\u2019s a small bump in the road: the receiving end needs to accept the file before it can be sent. Now, there\u2019s a good reason for that. You don\u2019t want a random person to send you a file out of nowhere without your permission.
\nHowever, this security measure can be a bit of an annoyance if you often send files between your devices. Having to go back and forth between the devices to accept the file is tedious. You don\u2019t really need to give consent to send a file to yourself on your own devices.
\nThankfully, Google is going to release an update to let Nearby Share automatically send files to other devices. According to Android Authority, Google is going to release the update to the feature over the next couple of weeks.
\nFor those concerned about this news, don\u2019t worry, only devices with your Google account logged in will be able to automatically receive documents. If you\u2019re sending a file to a device you don\u2019t own, they will still need to accept it.
\nAlso, this is a feature that you will need to actually opt-in to. This way, the software won\u2019t automatically accept your files without your permission. If you want to know how to use this feature, here\u2019s our guide.
