Alright, so what if I told you you can actually use airdrop? One of those special Apple ecosystem features on Android so I First saw this from Michelle Roman on Twitter. But basically there's an Android app called Warp Share that literally uses the airdrop protocol to send files directly from an Android phone to a Mac. So I have to do is open up the app, have your airdrop on the Mac set to everyone, and then select the file you want to share. And Boom! the computer sees it as a real airdrop.
Now this app isn't actually on the Play Store. You'd have to either side load it or compile it yourself. But if you want something a little easier, there's actually another one that you install on the Mac. It's called near drop.
So this one works Basically the exact opposite way of Warp Share. With this, you install the app on the Mac which gives it nearby share capabilities. So now any Android phone with the ability to share to nearby share will see your Mac as an option. Boom! Basically the same thing.
Obviously, these will only work from an Android phone to a Mac, not the other way around. That's still restricted by something called Apple wireless direct Link. But hey, if you want to share stuff on an Android phone to a Mac, you don't need an iPhone.
You can always use bluetooth file exchange to send files to android devices…. its just very slow.
Does it work with iPhone?
You don't buy an apple they won't connect with device other than apple devices, you buy an apple you're trapped in their ecosystem and be one of their slaughter sheeps or milking cow
I didn’t airdrop him a message yet the screen is saying I did 🤔
can you air drop from an android to an iPhone instead of a mac
Its genuinely wild to me how Apple can be so scummy that they force people to buy an Apple phone to use a basic feature on their computer and vice versa, but people still eat it up.
