Overview
- 9to5Google observed the persistent 'Everyone' option disappear on a Pixel 10 in what appears to be a backend change.
- Android Authority first noted the behavior, initially linking it to Play Services beta v26.06.31.
- 9to5Google also saw the change on a device running stable Play Services v26.04.38, pointing to a server-side toggle rather than a client update.
- The temporary 'Everyone for 10 minutes' setting remains in place, aligning Quick Share’s options with Apple’s AirDrop on iPhone.
- Google has not issued an announcement, and reporters suggest the adjustment is privacy-focused and likely intended for wider rollout across Android.
