The Samsung Quick Share was first announced for the Windows platform more than 2 years ago. However, this application was only accessible between Samsung branded Windows PCs (Laptops & PCs), tablets, and smartphones. But now, this feature is finally being rolled out to include non-Samsung products as well.
Samsung Quick Share rolling for every Windows PC now
For those unaware, the Quick Share from the South Korean tech giant was exclusive to only Samsung products, so one could not install the app on any other brand’s Windows device. But thankfully, this is changing soon. The company has just released the new Quick Share version v1.4.40 on Windows. With this change, the official update change log states that the app will now support “Windows PCs of other companies.”
Meaning, the Quick Share application can now be installed on non-Samsung branded desktops and laptops. Thanks to this feature, one can seamlessly transfer files and more from your Samsung Galaxy smartphone or tablet to any of your Windows PCs. But, this Quick Share will only work on Windows devices that feature at least Intel’s Bluetooth driver version 22.50.02 and Intel’s Wi-Fi driver version 22.50.07.
To put it simply, it will only work with these versions and chips from MediaTek or other manufacturers are not supported at the moment. However, its not all bad news considering that Microsoft Phone Link and Google Nearby Share are still viable alternatives. But hopefully, Samsung manages to include the broader Windows devices market in the near future. Here’s our guide on how to use Nearby Share on Android and Windows.
