In one of the articles, we looked at how to use the phone as a wifi router.

A modern multifunctional smartphone is used not only for calls, SMS, Internet access or work with applications. Given the large volume internal memory and connecting an SD card, a mobile gadget becomes a kind of "flash drive" for storing data. Therefore, if files are stored on the device, they sometimes need to be transferred. And not only between two Android smartphones, but also between a PC and a smartphone.

In this article, we will cover the main ways to transfer files between different devices.

Transfer files from Android to Android

The easiest way to exchange files between smartphones is to use the Bluetooth sync capabilities. The advantage of this method is that you do not need to install additional utilities to transfer data. It is enough just to produce small tweak in the gadget menu:

Turn on Bluetooth in the settings or pull the top curtain of notifications and press the button
Do the same on another smartphone
Wait for both devices to find each other
Open File Explorer or file manager e.g. Total Commander
Hold the line with the selected file
In the context menu, click "Submit"
Choose "Bluetooth" method
Specify the device to which the file will be sent

After a few seconds, the file will be copied to another smartphone. By the way, using Bluetooth, you can transfer data not only to another mobile phone, but also to other devices, for example, in this way, files are transferred from PC to Android from laptop to Android. The main thing is that they are equipped with a Bluetooth module or adapter.

If you need to transfer a file from Android to PC or vice versa, the easiest way is to connect devices via USB. To do this, you need the cable that comes with your smartphone.

In the connection menu, indicate the connection of the media device
Open Explorer or Total Commander

Transferring files via USB to Android from a PC is carried out using exactly the same algorithm.

You can also transfer files between Android and PC using Wi-Fi. This requires the installation of additional software. One of best programs AirDroid is considered for wireless synchronization of PCs and smartphones. You will need to install an application on your smartphone, which is downloaded from Google Play, and on a PC in a browser, you need to open the page http://web.airdroid.com.

Transfer files between Android and iOS

To transfer files from your smartphone to Apple computers, you need full access to the file Android system however, it cannot be obtained by standard means on Mac. If in Windows it is enough to connect your phone using a USB cable, then the Mac requires additional software to be installed. For this purpose, Google has developed the Android File Transfer program.

Android File Transfer is a dedicated tool for connecting Android phones to OS X devices. Developed and supported by Google. The program is distributed in the form of a downloadable dmg image and can later be used to connect various devices based on the Android OS. It is by far the best tool to send and receive data from smartphone to Mac.
