Google to launch Quick Share SDK for Android and iOS apps in 2027
Google announced at its Android Dev Summit that it will release a Quick Share SDK in the first half of 2027, letting developers embed peer-to-peer file sharing and Tap to Share directly within their Android and iOS apps. The SDK would let users share files through a bottom-sheet interface inside an app rather than opening the full-screen Quick Share experience via the system share sheet.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Embedding Quick Share directly into third-party apps could streamline file transfers for users, removing extra steps currently required to share content between devices. This move also suggests Google is pushing deeper cross-platform compatibility, given the SDK targets both Android and iOS, potentially increasing Quick Share's competitiveness with Apple's AirDrop.
