    What do you use it for, when you’re outside network range?

    I’ve never been in a situation where it felt necessary.

      Some apps show as incompatible with my tablet (Lenovo Y700 Gen 2) even though they work fine. I can often share those from my phone directly in the Play Store.

      The article says I could use Files going forward, but it doesn’t work - Quick Share is missing entirely on the tablet and I haven’t found a way to enable/install it

        I see. There’s stuff such as apkmirror, but an official way to do it is better.
