Summarize

Android users have been waiting for a long time, and finally look forward to the sharing function. It may be because this is still a Beta version, the stability needs to be improved, it often takes a while to find the device when connecting, and sometimes errors occur, and data cannot be transmitted. Hope it can be improved after the official version is released. It should also be noted that Nearby Share Beta does not support ARM devices, requires a 64 bit Windows 10 or above computer, and a mobile phone needs to be Android 6.0 or later.
