Part 2: Move Images from Android to Android with Bluetooth (Without Network)
Bluetooth has been a popular way to transfer files between devices because it is network-free and supports every Android device. There is only one key factor to keep the concentration: to shrink the distance between Androids to 10 meters. The shorter, the better.
Step 1 Switch Bluetooth on both Android devices. Usually, you can toggle it on by scrolling down or up on your Android device.
Step 2 Open the Album or Photos app on your Android and select photos you want to send. Tap Share > choose Bluetooth > select your target device's name. The target Android will receive photos automatically.
1. Bluetooth is prone to disconnecting even if you keep a compliant distance. Therefore, you'd better not operate other apps on both devices so that you won't interrupt the transfer.
2. When transferring data with Bluetooth, your phones are susceptible to getting attacked. So, make sure your Bluetooth condition is safe.
3. The Bluetooth transfer speed depends on your device's Bluetooth version. Generally, the Bluetooth version tends to be higher if your device is relatively new.
Part 3: Export Pictures from Android to Android Using Google Photos (15GB Storage)
Google Photos is Google's cloud drive service. You can upload your photos on the source device and download them to another. Google Photos gives every user 15GB of storage for free. If you want more space, subscribe for $1.99/month for 100GB or $9.99/month for 2TB. Now, let's see how to transfer pictures from one phone to another with free Google Photos.
Step 1 Open Google Photos on your source device > tap your profile at the left top corner > turn on backup. Your photos will be uploaded to Google Photos automatically.
Step 2 Log in to the same Google account on your target Android for Google Photos > turn on backup following Step 1. Now, you can check your photos on the new device and download them to the local.
Part 4: How do I Transfer Pictures from Android to Android with Nearby Share (Android Beam)
Nearby Share is an official Android function that transfers data, similar to iPhone Airdrop. You may also hear about Android Beam. Well, it is the forerunner of Nearby Share. However, Android Beam has generally been phased out since Android 10 and must be bundled with NFC. Therefore, fewer and fewer devices support Android Beam.
Step 1 Open Settings > navigate and tap Google > select Device and Sharing > tap Nearby Share > toggle it on both devices. Also, turn on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi on both devices.
Step 2 Open the Photos app on your Android > select photos > tap Share on the bottom > choose Nearby Share > select your target device's name. You need to agree to receive photos on the target device.
