Here\u2019s what\u2019s new.<\/p>\n<h2 data-block-key=\"bd4ot\">Share with anyone, on any device<\/h2>\n<p data-block-key=\"einh9\">We\u2019ve all been there: trying to send a video from a family gathering to a group of people who all have different phones. To make this easier, we made Quick Share compatible with AirDrop for supported Android phones starting with Pixel, and we\u2019re expanding to more partners including Samsung, OPPO, OnePlus, Vivo, Xiaomi and HONOR this year.<\/p>\n<p data-block-key=\"agapn\">If you don\u2019t have a compatible device, you can use Quick Share on any Android phone to generate a QR code, which will let you instantly share with iOS devices via the cloud. This feature starts rolling out to all Android phones today and will be fully available within the next month. Soon, we\u2019ll also make Quick Share available inside some of your favorite apps, including WhatsApp.<\/p>\n<h2 data-block-key=\"ba3lm\">Switch to Android with ease<\/h2>\n<p data-block-key=\"chvvn\">We worked with Apple to overhaul the iOS-to-Android transfer process to ensure your data moves with you. Your passwords, photos, messages, favorite apps, contacts and even your homescreen layout can migrate wirelessly from your iPhone to your new Android device. This upgraded process, which also supports eSIM transfer, will launch first on Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel devices this year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.google\/products-and-platforms\/platforms\/android\/new-android-updates\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Android updates add security and ease https:\/\/blog.google\/products-and-platforms\/platforms\/android\/new-android-updates\/ Publish Date: 2026-05-12 03:00:00 Source Domain: blog.google&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":255056,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/gweb-uniblog-publish-prod\/images\/Blog-social.width-1300.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[70,83,158,72,86,57,117,118],"class_list":["post-255055","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android","tag-google","tag-oneplus","tag-oppo","tag-pixel","tag-samsung","tag-security","tag-vivo","tag-xiaomi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255055"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=255055"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255055\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":255057,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/255055\/revisions\/255057"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/255056"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=255055"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=255055"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=255055"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
