How To Transfer Large Files Between Android Devices Quickly

0

Well for about now, the only way to transfer data between two mobiles is Bluetooth. Infrared has gone for a long time and despite we don’t use it much, still sometimes we have to use it to transfer small size photos or Music. The real reason why we hate transferring large files via Bluetooth, is because it is not that much fast. You will get a 200kbps rate, not fast enough for files of 1GB or even 100MB, they will consume a lot of time to transfer them.

In Past, we share an article about using ES File explorer to Stream movies from PC, today we will share how to transfer very large files, in terms of Bluetooth, within Android devices using ES File Explorer. Since ES File Explorer has the option to connect to an IP for data transferring, without having any Access point to connect, using a concept of Wi-Fi Direct. All you need is Two or More Android devices with ES File Explorer installed on both of them and your Android device must be running Android 4.1 or Above.
