App to transfer all sorts of files
On more than occasion, you've had the need to transfer a heavy file to another persona and you just haven't been able to... whether because your connection was too slow because you didn't have a cable at hand, because the file was too big for your email account... But no problem, all these troubles can be solved with an app of the likes of Swift File Transfer, an application with which you can share any file with another person or among your own devices, provided that they're nearby.
Sending files without cables, without the Internet, without Bluetooth... How does it work?
Well, it's easier than what it seems: you need to install the APK on two Android devices, one of them will be the transmitter and the other the receiver. When the transmitter opens the application and chooses the file or files to be shared, the receiver will receive an invitation to download it to his smartphone or tablet.
The fact is that a WiFi hotspot only valid for the transfer of that data packet is set up and only the user that received the invitation can connect to it. The only requirement is to be less than 15 meters away.
You can send whatever you want: photos, videos, installed applications, music, folders, documents... anything on your mobile phone.
