This is the easiest way to send your  photos , videos , documents file from your android mobile phone to your laptop computer or another phone .

This password will be required for authentication  at the time of making connection between your phone and laptop. And save the settings.

Step 3 : Now go to  your phone file manager or gallery , select the files which you wish to transfer and click on the triangle button ( share button) , you will find all the options available in the phone to send the file , like Bluetooth , email , Fast File Transfer , etc .  Select the option – Fast File Transfer. This will automatically turn on your phone wifi.

Step 4 : Now turn on the wifi of other device ie. Laptop or phone to which you need to send your files. After that look for available wifi networks . you will find the name of your phone , click on your phone name wifi network and enter the authentication password , which you had created in step 2.

Step 5 : Once your phone get connected to laptop  . you need to open any browser in your laptop and enter the ftp url as prompted in your phone screen . After that hit enter key , now all your file will start downloading in your laptop which you had sent from your android phone.
