Samsung introduced the private share feature with it’s latest update ( version 1.1.20.21 ) Samsung’s new features allows one to easily share files.
Private Share is an application built on a privacy -first blockchain model. It allows one to share up to 20 files at a time – all under the limit size of less than 100mb from the previous 10 files and a 20MB size limit.
With the new update, one can choose recipients from their contact list.
Similar to the former Samsung Quick share feature, the private share requires both sender and receiver to have the Private Share app completely set up.
After following the next set of instructions, the sender can request to transfer files and once this request is accepted by recipients, a private channel will be created and files moved in a Read-only mode.
