In late 2025, Google released a new Android update that allowed Pixel 10 users to send files to iPhone through Quick Share. Quick Share is, essentially, Android’s version of AirDrop.
The move was considered pretty shocking for the time — Android and iPhone aren’t known for playing well together. However, it was a feature that many smartphone users have clamored for — especially given that many households use a mix of Android and Apple products.
