The current design of Nearby Share shows a left-to-right wave to display that the process of “Looking for nearby devices” is occurring. With the new update, the Material You shapes come to Nearby Share device discover screen that fades out behind your profile avatar.
In addition, the text now has slightly larger fonts and is placed in the center with the Nearby Share heading moved to the top along with using the icon. The share preview is also slightly larger compared to the current one, displays in a circular shape.
