Nearby Device File Sharing Galaxy S7

[johnlopez3845]

Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to enable file sharing from my S7 so that my other Android devices can browse or copy it over wireless. Before I am using Note2 and LG G3 and there is an option to allow other devices to see what's in my gallery. My Samsung Smart TV can see the content of my phone and play it directly. I can no longer find that option in my S7.

Same thing for the other direction, I want my S7 to browse other devices as well. With my Note2 and G3, I can just open gallery and just click nearby devices (if I remember it correctly) to browse other phones that's doing a share.

Can someone help guide me?

Thanks!

JL

For file share on your S7 go to

Settings / NFC / turn on NFC and Android Beam.

To remote access your devices from your desktop load up SideSync on your desktop and Samsung devices if your Note 2 supports SideSync. You should be able to view the contents of both devices on your desktop for file exchanging.
