Transfer files "directly" from Android to iPhone

My friend (iPhone 13 I guess) and I (Pixel 7) want to share photos and videos we took with each other. We use some messaging app which allows it. But it's a hassle selecting and transferring. I'd like not to use another service if I don't have to. I wondered if there's a way to directly transfer images and video. I tried it with cable with my work iphone SE. At first Android recognized it as storage. But then all data transfer options are gone and it can only be charged. Is there any method to share files either via cable or wirelessly via Bluetooth, NFC, Wifi?
