Google has partnered with Samsung to bring its "fast and convenient" peer-to-peer content-sharing solution to transfer pictures, files, and text across multiple devices.

The Quick Share feature can also be expected to come on LG computers soon with Google working with the electronic manufacturer to have the Quick Share app pre-installed in its Windows system.

Quick Share will be accompanied by expanded connection support for the Fast Pair feature to link up with a wide selection of Bluetooth devices in just a few taps.

Fast Pair is also expected to arrive on Chromecast with Google TV. The feature is reported to be available to more Google TV devices "later this year."

And speaking of Chromecast, TikTok videos and LIVEs can soon be cast onto the big screen too.

The TikTok Chromecast support is expected to drop on the upcoming 2024 LG TV series, the latest Hisense ULED and ULED X Series, the TCL Q Class, and the TCL QM7 series.

Google Apps Service Rolls Out on More Car Models

Another memorable part of Google's keynote during the convention was the Android Auto getting "helpful upgrades" this year.

The Google car app will soon be available on the latest autos like the Ford Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning.

Electric vehicle owners can rejoice with this update too because all Android Auto-compatible EVs can hook up their real-time battery information with Google Maps for more accurate estimates before they run off power.
