Ask HN: How do people with Android phone do airdrop stuff?
Airdrop is so practical. I use it for exchanging links, photos, pdfs, and other files between my phone and my laptop (and between friends’ phones, etc.). I’m looking to move to android phones, because I need a fold phone, but I’m a bit worried that not having airdrop will complicate my life a lot. How do people who don’t have iPhones handle these tasks?
- QuarterReptile 5y agoEmail drafts are my extremely unsophisticated answer.
- baby 5y agoBut that can’t hold files of more than X mb no?
- QuarterReptile 5y agoTrue, but for me that is such a vanishingly rare problem that I use Google drive or a USB cord.

- baby 5y agoBut that’s from samsung device to samsung device innit?
