Let’s see if you from the in the bluetooth file on both sides, it’s not enough to just have it turned on. In Windows, sometimes you have to go into ‘Bluetooth and other devices’, click, and you may get the option receive a bluetooth file. Watch out, because if you don’t hit receive files there first, then nothing will be sent from the phone. It’s a silly thing, but it trips you up.
The bluetooth file transfer process is slow, I won’t lie to you. Bluetooth in internal storage. On some Android devices, to view bluetooth received files you have to go to Settings > Bluetooth, tap the three dots and look for “Show received files”. But anyway, if you want to move them, better to use a file manager and look directly for the “bluetooth” folder. How to share files via bluetooth on windows seems easy, but it has its tricks.
Sending and receiving bluetooth files between Windows and an Android usually works, but with iPhones it’s another world, sometimes they don’t even see each other. There’s an old utility called fsquirt that still works on some computers for the exchange. The key for a bluetooth file transfer to work is patience. And having updated drivers, because if not, the option to send or receive files via bluetooth won’t even appear.
In the end, the bluetooth exchange of a lifetime is useful for files that aren’t very large, when there’s no internet. But anyway, to receive files via bluetooth or receive files via bluetooth without getting frustrated, the best thing is to make sure one device is already waiting in receive bluetooth mode before sending anything from the other side. It’s a coordinated dance, otherwise, you step on each other.
