Samsung has updated its Quick Share app on Windows but you may still need another app

Samsung and Google have collaborated to combine file-sharing solutions on Android. Now, Samsung is developing a new version of the Quick Share app for Windows. The updated app features the new logo from the merger of Nearby Share and Quick Share. However, it does not include Nearby Share support, requiring users to download the separate Nearby Share app from Google.
