Want to transfer 1GB of file to another device in no time? This tutorial will be useful if you want to transfer large size of files from one device to another. Read on to know...
Since the dawn of mobile devices, Android and iOS I have seen many ways on how you can share your files from various devices with the use of technology that lets you transfer files from one device to another.
One of the most popular and probably the first ever way to transfer files from one device to another is by Bluetooth. Bluetooth is essentially being around before Android and iOS came into existence or become popular mobile operating system.
As far as I know Bluetooth was invented by the telecom vendor Ericsson way back in 1994. By that time Android and iOS is not in existence. They (Android and iOS) only become popular in 2007 and 2008 respectively when they were released into public by Google (Android) and Apple (iOS).
The latest Bluetooth technology lets you transfer at about 50 Mbit/s when you are fortunate enough if your device came with a Bluetooth 5.0 version with a maximum range of 800 feet. But not all devices have a Bluetooth 5.0 mostly they came with a Bluetooth 4.0 version.
But there is another way wherein you can transfer way faster than Bluetooth with the use of your mobile device's Wi-Fi technology. You only need to install a single app called SHAREit to use your Wi-Fi in your mobile device.
Speaking of Wi-Fi, if your mobile device's year is from 2013 and beyond chances are it will be packing a version of Wi-Fi-N (802.11n) that is capable of up to 300 Mbps file transfer speed and that is almost 6 times the speed of the latest Bluetooth version can offer which is Bluetooth 5.0 with the speed of up to 50 Mbps.
The current and newest version of Wi-Fi available if Wi-Fi-AC (802.11ac) that is capable of up to 1000 Mbps of file transfer.
Now don't be confused with this method of file transfer as it will not need you to have a router to accomplish this method of file transfer. The devices that you will use for file transfer will only communicate with each other using their Wi-Fi.
In your Android mobile just go to your Play Store then download and install SHAREit. You need to have both devices that you will use for file transfer be installed with SHAREit.
After you installed SHAREit you will not need to configure anything. Just open both devices' SHAREit then perform a file transfer. If you have used Bluetooth, then you will not feel foreign in using SHAREit.
That's it guys, enjoy.
