I look forward to Chrome OS updates as they tend to come fast and furious. Maybe not so furious but more helpful and this release is no different. The feature I’ve been looking forward to for a while now is available in Nearby Share. Nearby Share is a handy feature that allows you to share files between devices. It's been available on Android for a minute now and I'm glad to see it finally available on Chrome OS making the feature even more useful for us users.
Check out more on the update below.
Share files fast with Nearby Share
With Nearby Share, quickly and securely share files between your Chromebook and other Chrome OS or Android devices. You’ll be able to send and receive without giving your contact details, so your information and files stay private. Get started by going to your Settings Search key icon and toggling “Nearby Share” on.
Get notified with app badges
Check which of your apps need your attention with a glance. If you see a small circular badge on an app icon, this indicates that the app has active notifications available or something new for you to view. You can turn these badges off by visiting your Quick Settings and clicking “Notifications”
See answers automatically
You may already use your Launcher to search for apps, your files, results on Google and more. Now it’ll automatically show answers like simple calculations or weather information without you needing to open up a new browser window. Try it now by pressing the Everything Button (Launcher key icon or Search key icon) and typing “weather” into the search bar.
