OPPO Find X9 series now supports AirDrop sharing with iPhones and other Apple devices in India
OPPO has started rolling out cross-platform file sharing through Quick Share on its Find X9 series, and the update is now live in India as well (via). On paper, it sounds like a small software addition, but in practice it fixes one of those everyday annoyances that people just work around. You can now send files directly between the OPPO flagships and an iPhone or Mac without installing anything extra or relying on cloud uploads.
Direct sharing between OPPO and Apple devices
The feature is already working on devices like the OPPO Find X9 and OPPO Find X9 Pro, and it feels pretty simple. Both devices just need to be visible to ‘Everyone,’ and transfers happen through Quick Share. There is no app to download on the Apple side, no pairing process to figure out, and no detour through email or messaging apps.

This is a change from OPPO’s earlier O+ Connect system. That setup worked, but it added friction. iPhone users had to install a separate app, which made something as basic as sending a file feel more involved than it should be. O+ Connect still has its place for deeper features like linking devices or accessing files remotely, but for quick transfers, Quick Share now does the job without getting in the way.
Which Android phones have AirDrop compatibility?
OPPO’s rollout comes on the heels of similar moves by Google and Samsung. Google first introduced AirDrop interoperability through Quick Share on the Pixel 10 and Pixel 9 ranges. Samsung followed with the Galaxy S26, and is gradually enabling it across older flagships from the Galaxy S22 to the Z Fold 7, though the rollout there remains inconsistent.
AirDrop has long been one of the smoother parts of Apple’s ecosystem, working seamlessly across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. That experience still holds when you’re within Apple’s devices. OPPO and other Android OEMs are now making it easier to work across platforms. The experience may not be identical in every situation, but it’s now close enough for basic file transfers, which is what most users need day to day.
There are also early hints that this could go further. References to NFC-based tap-to-share features have already been spotted, which could make the process even quicker. That would bring Android closer to the tap-and-send interactions that Apple users are already familiar with.
If you use both Android and Apple devices, this update removes the need for cables, cloud uploads, or messaging apps just to move a file. That is where it makes the most difference, especially for photos, documents, or quick transfers. For buyers, this is becoming a feature worth paying attention to. It may not show up on a spec sheet, but it affects daily use more than many hardware upgrades. As more brands adopt it, cross-platform sharing is starting to feel less like a workaround and more like a built-in capability.
