Google removed app-sharing feature from Play Store update

Google has removed the app-sharing feature from the Play Store in its latest update (version 45.2.19-31). This feature, introduced in 2021, allowed users to share apps directly with others using the "Quick Share" option. The app-sharing feature was useful for users in areas with weak internet connections, enabling them to receive apps over local connections. However, it was not widely known or used. Google did not provide a reason for the removal. While users can no longer share apps directly from the Play Store, other standalone apps still allow data sharing via Bluetooth.
