There’s a New App That Lets You Share Files on Android, iOS and PC: All the Details

File transfer is an important tool for many people, but it becomes a big hassle when you transfer files between different platforms and devices. Samsung is understanding this and has now come up with a solution to the issue. Its new app called Dropship has been launched for those using their Galaxy phones and devices in South Korea.

It allows users to share files with other Android phone users, iOS users and PC users as well. The Dropship app comes to its home market through Samsung’s GoodLock Labs. This file transfer tool will work on the latest One UI 5.0 version which is built on Android 13 operating system.

Samsung will ask users to download the Dropship app from the Galaxy App Store, which is available only to those who sign up for an account with Samsung. Samsung says Dropship supports OneDrive, Google Drive, Samsung Gallery and Google Photos apps.

Samsung is making the process of file transfer easier by using QR codes. Whenever the user wants to share a file, they can create and customize the QR code with a time limit to download. The person you share the code with can scan it and download the file.

However, Samsung has placed a file size limit on file transfers, limited to 5GB per day. The company is clearly making sure that heavy file transfers don’t happen through the app, and users consider other file transfer apps for such purposes.

Samsung is bringing the Dropship app to its users in South Korea for now, but it would be surprising if the company doesn’t ship it globally in the coming months. It’s possible that Samsung is looking to test the waters in its home market with the app for now.

And once all the bugs are fixed and transfers go smoothly, Samsung may release dropships to other countries as well. It could be a Galaxy-exclusive feature like Samsung Pay for some time, that attracts the company and its potential buyers.
