Method 2. How to Move Photos from Android to Android via Bluetooth

For wireless transfer, using Bluetooth technology to transfer files between two Android devices is probably the easiest way. From this aspect, both devices must have Bluetooth enabled and be paired with each other. And you can also transfer photos from Android to iPhone via Bluetooth. However, please note that Bluetooth transmission has a limit on the number of files that can be transmitted at one time. So if you have a lot of photos to transfer, using Bluetooth may be time-consuming.

📝Note: Because of the compression used during the transfer process, the quality of the transferred photos may be diminished. And the transfer speed is relatively slow.

Here are the steps to share photos from one Android to another with Bluetooth.

Step 1. Head to "Settings" on both your Android phones and turn on Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

Step 2. Choose the photos you want to move and initiate the transfer process by taping the "Share" icon and then the "Bluetooth" option.
