事件详情
据报道，WhatsApp 正在开发一项类似于 Apple AirDrop 的功能，名为 Nearby Share。该功能最初由 WABetaInfo 在 2024 年 4 月的 Android 测试版中发现，最近也出现在 iOS 测试版中。Nearby Share 将使用户能够向附近的智能手机发送各种文件类型，包括照片、视频和文档，而无需互联网连接。这在网络覆盖有限或不稳定时传输大文件特别有用。
在 Android 上，该功能的工作方式类似于 AirDrop，只要您的手机能够发现、连接并确定附近设备的相对位置，WhatsApp 即可共享文件。接收者必须允许接收文件。然而，iOS 上的实现有所不同；用户需要扫描二维码才能发起文件共享，因为 iOS 不支持附近的设备检测方法。 另见: Ofcom 揭露英国铁路移动覆盖差距.
WhatsApp 在 iOS 上改用二维码的原因尚不清楚。Android Authority 猜测这可能是为了防止恶意文件而增加的安全措施，而 9To5Mac 则认为可能是由于 iOS 的限制。无论如何，这一进展标志着 WhatsApp 在增强其跨平台文件共享能力方面迈出了重要一步。
