• Tap on Nearby Share and Set up number verification so that others can find you by using your phone number too
• Now go to “Device visibility” and set with whom you want to share. You can let all contacts see your device or choose who can see an contact you via Nearby share
• One configured, while sharing any file, you can tap on the share option and then choose “Nearby Share” from all options available
