Login to your Google Drive and select the files which you want to download. This method requires an active internet connection, as both download and upload are needed.

Using Bluetooth

Launch the File Manager app. The name of this can alternatively be Files, Explorer, File Explorer, My Files, or something similar. Open the Settings app on an Android device running Marshmallow or later to access the file manager.

• Even though iOS includes a Files app, Bluetooth transfers are typically not supported. Instead, it makes use of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi-based AirDrop for non-internet file transfers.
• Navigate to the folder containing the files you wish to move. The DCIM folder often contains camera images.
• To select, tap the Menu icon.
• You can mail the files you’ve chosen.
• Select the “Share” icon.
• Select Bluetooth from the list of sharing choices.
• To transfer files to a Bluetooth device, tap it. The screen shows a notice that reads “Sending # Files to [device]”.

The file name, file size, and sending device is displayed in a file transfer notice that appears on the receiving device. If no action is made within the allotted 15 seconds, this window can vanish (nothing will be transmitted). In this case, transmit the files once more.

To download the files, choose Accept on the receiving device. Select a folder location on a computer if the receiving device is one. Depending on your PC, choose Decline, Cancel, or Reject to reject the transfer.
