Windows has been able to connect to your Android phone for quite a while.

Nearby Share will now pop up in the native share menu over files and similar items.

The function is separate from Google’s standalone Quick Share app.

The feature is currently only available through the Windows Insider channel, though it’ll likely become public soon.
