Google says developers will be able to integrate Quick Share into Android and iOS apps through an SDK planned for the first half of 2027. The integration is intended to let users share files within an app rather than opening the system share sheet and full-screen Quick Share experience.

Google announced the Quick Share SDK at Android Dev Summit 2026, with release planned for the first half of 2027.
The SDK will let developers integrate peer-to-peer file sharing into Android and iOS apps, avoiding the need to open the system share sheet and full-screen Quick Share experience.
Google describes features including end-to-end encryption, offline sharing, uncompressed transfers, and low-latency transfer speeds; in-app use is shown with a bottom-sheet preview.
