Samsung’s Quick Share redesign expands to non-Galaxy Android phones

Samsung’s revamped Quick Share interface is no longer limited to Galaxy devices. Google has started rolling out the updated design to other Android phones, according to a report from Android Authority.

With One UI 8.0, Samsung replaced the old pop-up Quick Share menu with a full-screen layout. The new interface introduces two tabs — Send and Receive — making file transfers easier to understand and manage. This same design is now appearing on select non-Samsung Android devices, though availability varies by region and phone model.

The Send tab lets users preview files before sharing, while the Receive tab makes it clearer how to accept incoming transfers. The update builds on last year’s merger of Nearby Share and Quick Share, which unified Android’s wireless sharing under a single system.

Quick Share now works across all Android brands, Windows devices, and Chromebooks — and Google is even exploring support for Apple’s ecosystem. For people who juggle multiple phones and PCs in their daily life, Quick Share has proven to be a big relief: it’s fast, secure, and built right into Android. The convenience of sharing a file without even touching the receiving device is now getting an upgrade with this quality-of-life redesign.

It’s not yet clear whether older Samsung devices running One UI 7 will see the redesign, but the wider rollout shows Google and Samsung’s ongoing effort to make file sharing on Android simpler and more consistent.
