Samsung Good Lock’s Quick Share alternative is failing to share files with iPhones

Samsung’s Good Lock file transfer tool hit a wall, but a fix is on the way.

Samsung Good Lock’s Quick Share alternative is failing to share files with iPhones

According to Samsung's Good Lock module, a feature called Dropship is currently experiencing a problem that prevents it from successfully sharing files with iPhones. Users who attempted to share files through Dropship have been met with an error message stating, "The coordinates you entered are incorrect, or the item has expired."

Samsung has acknowledged the issue and assured that an update will be released in November to resolve the matter. Before Dropship began supporting AirDrop, Samsung's Dropship solution allowed Samsung users to share up to 5GB of files per day with other devices, including iPhones. However, this functionality was initially limited to users in South Korea; users outside of that region were able to sideload the module.

The Dropship bug has now impacted users in various regions, with reports indicating that the issue extends beyond the initial six iPhones to a total of seven devices. Specifically, users have mentioned that the problem is particularly prevalent when trying to share photo files.
