Proximity sharing with android tablets?

Has anyone seen this work with an android tablet? I've seen it work with an iPad, but none of my rooms with (supported) Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8 tablets nor one with a Lenovo P10 tablet work.

How does it work in Touch rooms without a tablet?

    Hi @neve ,

     

    Proximity sharing must be supported on the devices. It seems like there are different versions of the Galaxy Tab A8 (one with, one without a proximity sensor).  This is something the manufacturer can confirm.

     

    If this is confirmed you should be able to share by following our instructions:

    Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.

    So it looks like the only supported Android tablet I can find which will work is the SM-T350 (2015) version of the GTA8 which is 6 years old now.

    @neve if you're looking for a panel that is android based and definitely support Direct Sharing, I'd look at solutions from partners like Neat.  Thanks!
