Samsung have officially announced that their Samsung Galaxy S26 series of smartphones will soon be able to share content using Apple AirDrop via Quick Share starting from today or 23 March 2026. The rollout will begin from South Korea and then eventually more regions such as Europe, Hong Kong, Japan, Latin America, North America, Southeast Asia and Taiwan.
Just the Samsung Galaxy S26 series for now…
Initially, Apple AirDrop support will only be for the Samsung Galaxy S26 series which includes the Samsung Galaxy S26, Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus and Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. We expect that this will become available to other Samsung devices eventually, but no rollout dates or devices have been mentioned just yet.
How to set AirDrop on your Samsung Galaxy S26 series device
Here's how to set AirDrop via Quick Share on your Samsung Galaxy S26 series device:
- Go to Settings
- Tap on Connected Devices
- Tap on Quick Share
- Tap on Share with Apple devices
- Toggle the option to On
The move comes in the footsteps of both Google’s Pixels and Honor’s devices, and we expect other Android devices to also announce Apple AirDrop support via Quick Share soon too.
