Win10 laptop (dual boot with Mint of course), Mint laptop, old android and iphone. This is a simple "ad-hoc" solution for me, because vlc is on all my devices. This only works if both devices are on the same wifi network. This enables me to use an external USB SDD or thumbdrive that I can use to transfer to linux, win, android, whatever.Īnother "trick" to send files between (almost any) devices is to use VLC.
