Android Beam is a special technology that allows you to share data between two devices. As you know, many modern phones are equipped with the NFC module designed to transfer information over a short distance. The developers have expanded the capabilities of this chip, allowing users to share certain data. For example, it is possible to send a photo from one smartphone to another completely without wires and the Internet. To do this, it is enough to bring the phones to each other and unlock the screen.
To check whether your smartphone supports Android Beam, follow the path: “Settings” → “Connecting the device” → “NFC”. The desired technology will work if the phone has an NFC module. It isn’t easy to find a use for such an option because almost all information is transmitted via Wi-Fi. However, using Android Beam to transfer small files quickly is very convenient.
