- After a months-long beta program, Nearby Share for Windows is official.
- Simply download an app to your Windows PC and share files to or from your Android phone.
- Google is partnering with HP to pre-install Nearby Share on certain systems.
Earlier this year, Google rolled out a new way to share files across your Windows-based PC and your Android phone. While a beta, Nearby Share for Windows worked just fine — so well that Google says it’s already been installed by 1.7 million people.
Today, though, Google is removing the “beta” tag from the software. Now, Nearby Share for Windows is stable and available for everyone.
