AirDrop & Nearby Sharing App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — Send with AirDrop zh-Hans Copy
Your iOS or Mac app markets AirDrop, Send with AirDrop, nearby sharing, or wireless transfer to nearby devices on the en-US product page — maybe a screenshot with the AirDrop avatar row, a "Share nearby" badge, or a description that says files move without internet.
Open the same app on the China storefront and buyers still land on an English product page: name, subtitle, keywords, description, and screenshot captions that read "AirDrop", "Send with AirDrop", or "Nearby sharing" in Latin script instead of 隔空投送 or 附近分享.
Shipping nearby-transfer code in the binary does not auto-fill a Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) localization row.
AppLocale writes paste-ready zh-Hans listing copy for those Connect fields — accurate for how your app actually sends to nearby devices, without conflating AirDrop with the Share sheet, Handoff continuity, or SharePlay sessions.

Western indie iOS and Mac developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — who:
Already ship an app that sends content to nearby Apple devices — AirDrop sheet integration, in-app Send with AirDrop, or marketing that says nearby sharing / wireless transfer
Market AirDrop, Send with AirDrop, Share nearby, or no internet needed on the en-US product page and screenshot gallery
Finished nearby-transfer features in the binary — not looking for MultipeerConnectivity or Bonjour engineering help here
Enabled the China App Store but the zh-Hans row is empty, machine-translated, or still English on AirDrop-themed frames
Need paste-ready Connect storefront text — not an engineer for peer-discovery APIs, not a designer to re-export every screenshot from scratch
The problem: English AirDrop copy on the China storefront
AirDrop-forward listings fail on the China App Store in predictable ways when only en-US is filled:
Robotic literal translation — machine output that says 空投 for AirDrop or mixes English brand terms with awkward hanzi
Over-claiming system AirDrop — listing promises full AirDrop integration when your app only exports a file that users must send manually from the Share sheet
Confused with Share sheet or Handoff — description talks about "sharing" generically when screenshots show the AirDrop avatar row, or mixes 接力 Handoff language with 隔空投送 nearby send
Untranslated screenshot badges — overlay lines like "Send with AirDrop", "Share nearby", or "Nearby sharing" remain English on zh-Hans gallery frames
Keyword field still en-US — buyers search 隔空投送, 附近分享, or 无线传文件; an English-only keyword row misses China Search intent
Better zh-Hans listing copy helps nearby-transfer buyers understand your wireless-send story before install. It does not replace MultipeerConnectivity implementation, AirDrop entitlements, or Apple's review decisions.
AirDrop listing copy is not Share sheet, Handoff, Files, or AirPlay
Proximity and sharing apps blur several shop guides indie teams conflate. AppLocale covers listing metadata only — AirDrop and nearby wireless send on the product page:
AirDrop & nearby sharing (this page) — Send with AirDrop badges, Share nearby overlays, wireless transfer to nearby iPhone iPad and Mac, 隔空投送, and 附近分享 in description and screenshot captions.
Share sheet (different) — system Share UI with Copy Link, Save Image, Share to Messages. See Share sheet listing guide — not AirDrop avatar-row marketing.
Handoff & Continuity (different) — start on iPhone continue on Mac session resume. See Handoff listing guide — not wireless file send to a nearby device.
Files & document browser (different) — opening and browsing documents in the Files app. See Files browser listing guide — not AirDrop transfer marketing.
AirPlay (different) — cast video or audio to Apple TV or HomePod. See AirPlay listing guide — not send-to-nearby-device copy.
NFC tap-to-interact (different) — Tap to interact or NFC tag workflows, not Apple Pay. See Apple Pay & NFC listing guide only if your story is payments — proximity NFC is a separate surface from AirDrop.
Your screenshots may show an AirDrop row inside a Share sheet mockup. Listing copy should name the buyer benefit accurately — 隔空投送 to nearby devices is not 复制链接 Copy Link and not 接力 Handoff resume.
AirDrop-specific vocabulary — what translates differently in zh-Hans
Nearby-transfer listings use terms general localization guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese App Store readers evaluate wireless send features:
隔空投送 (AirDrop) vs 附近分享 (nearby sharing)
Apple's Chinese system UI uses 隔空投送 for AirDrop. 附近分享 fits when your marketing says nearby sharing or wireless transfer without always naming the AirDrop brand. Pick the term buyers recognize on each screenshot frame — an AirDrop avatar row needs 隔空投送-friendly phrasing; a generic proximity badge may use 附近分享 when accurate.
Device-accurate claims
If your app sends to nearby iPhone and iPad but not Mac, zh-Hans copy should say 向附近的 iPhone 和 iPad 隔空投送 — not 向 Mac 隔空投送 unless a Mac target exists. AppLocale rewrites from your stated device matrix and English claims; we do not invent platform support your Connect listing cannot deliver.
Do not imply system AirDrop you do not ship
If your app prepares a file and opens the system share UI — where the user picks AirDrop themselves — listing copy should say 导出后可通过隔空投送发送, not 内置隔空投送 when you do not present the AirDrop sheet inside your UI. Over-claiming invites review questions and refund requests from China buyers.
Before / after — AirDrop listing phrases (en-US → zh-Hans)
Concrete examples AppLocale rewrites from your English source — not generic Share sheet, Handoff, or AirPlay copy:
Description line — Before: Share files to nearby iPhone, iPad, and Mac with AirDrop — no internet required. → After: 向附近的 iPhone、iPad 和 Mac 隔空投送文件，无需联网。
Screenshot caption — Before: Tap AirDrop to send instantly → After: 轻点隔空投送，即刻发送
Keyword field — Before: AirDrop,nearby,wireless transfer,share files → After: 隔空投送,附近分享,无线传文件,近场传输
Promotional text — Before: New: Send with AirDrop from inside the app → After: 新功能：在应用内直接隔空投送
Final phrasing depends on your English claims, device matrix, and Connect character caps. See Simplified Chinese keywords & subtitle for field mechanics.

What AppLocale does not do
Does not implement MultipeerConnectivity, NSNetService, Bonjour, CoreBluetooth, or custom peer-sharing SDKs
Does not wire AirDrop entitlements, discovery sessions, or transfer protocols in your binary
Does not write Share sheet, Handoff, SharePlay, Files browser, or AirPlay listing copy — see those dedicated guides for different scope
Does not design or re-export screenshot PNG/JPEG assets — caption line sheets only
Does not localize in-app transfer UI strings, system AirDrop banners, or app binary strings
Does not guarantee App Store ranking or download growth in China or elsewhere
Is not QuantRadar, not paid ads management, and not investment or legal advice
Does not invent reviews, ratings, or traffic numbers

Does adding AirDrop in my app auto-translate my China listing?
No. AirDrop UI and nearby-transfer code control in-app behavior — they do not create or fill a Simplified Chinese localization row. Empty or English zh-Hans fields mean China buyers see en-US fallback even when screenshots show Send with AirDrop in English.
How is AirDrop listing copy different from Share sheet or Handoff copy?
AirDrop listing copy markets wireless send to nearby devices — 隔空投送 and 附近分享. Share sheet copy markets the system Share UI (Copy Link, Save Image). Handoff copy markets session resume across devices (接力). Different buyer story, different zh-Hans vocabulary.
What listing fields does AppLocale rewrite for AirDrop apps?
Paste-ready zh-Hans copy for title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text when included, and screenshot overlay or caption lines such as AirDrop, Send with AirDrop, Share nearby, Nearby sharing, 隔空投送, and 附近分享 — rewritten from your English originals.
Does AppLocale implement MultipeerConnectivity or peer-sharing SDKs?
No. We deliver Connect listing metadata copy only. MultipeerConnectivity, Bonjour discovery, CoreBluetooth proximity, and custom P2P transfer code are outside scope.
How should zh-Hans copy describe nearby sharing without over-claiming system AirDrop?
Match what your binary actually offers — native AirDrop sheet, custom nearby transfer, or export-then-AirDrop — using 隔空投送 and 附近分享 accurately. AppLocale rewrites from your English claims and device matrix; we do not invent transfer flows your app cannot deliver.
