When you live with other Android users under the same roof, you can often find yourself in a situation where you need to
transfer files (music, photos, videos) and apps
from one device to another. If there are only one or two files or applications, we can use Bluetooth to complete the task. But if there are more than just a few files and apps,
transfer them by Bluetooth
could take forever.
Using the computer as middleware is an option and can handle the transfer in no time but why use it when something more convenient is available? Today we will see how we can transfer these files and apps from one Android device to another over Wi-Fi without using any other device in between. We will be using TapPouch Wi-Fi File Transfer, a free, simple Android app, for this task.
Using TapPouch Wi-Fi File Transfer on Android
Step 1: Download and install TapPouch Wi-Fi File Transfer for Phone on both Android devices that you intend to use to transfer files. The app works on all devices running on Android version 2.2 and above. Also, make sure that both devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
Step 2: Now launch the app on both. The app will open in sharing mode by default. To share some files, tap the option Share files/folders on the sender’s device and select the file, media, or app you want to share. When you’re done, tap the share button to get started.
On the receiving device, tap the . button Get files/folders when the transmission on the sender’s device begins.
Step 3: The sending device will generate a unique 6-digit PIN that you will have to enter in the receiving device to authenticate yourself.
Step 4: After successful authentication, the transfer will begin and the files will be saved to the memory card of the receiving device. You can see all the files transferred through Management Mode—>ViewPouch.
The application comes with a pretty good file manager, thanks to which you can perform simple operations on files. You can also transfer the entire contents of a folder by selecting the folder and transferring it using the file manager.
Conclusion
TapPouch Wi-Fi File Transfer is a must have application if you often encounter such file transfer situations. If you don’t have a router, here’s a simple trick to help you create a Wi-Fi hotspot with your laptop.
