Google Play services v22.15 Nearby Share Update

The most significant feature of the May 2022’s Google Play updates is the introduction of self-sharing in Nearby Share. Self-sharing will make it easier to transfer documents, links, and even text from your device to another without accepting the share on the device receiving it. If you’ve never experienced the benefits of Nearby Share on your Android phone, it provides the same experience as AirDrop for Apple devices. It is compatible with Chromebooks as well as Windows desktops.
