Transfer Data Using Wi-Fi Direct

Wi-Fi Direct allows you to rapidly transfer data between Huawei devices. Wi-Fi Direct is faster than

Bluetooth and does not require devices to be paired. It is better suited to transferring large les over

short distances.

Send les

with Wi-Fi Direct: Open

Files, touch and hold a le you want to send, and go to

Mor

e > Share > Wi-Fi Direct. When another device is detected, touch its name to establish the

connection and begin le transfer.

Receive les with Wi-Fi direct: Enable Wi-F

i. In the Wi-Fi settings screen, touch

> W

i-Fi Direct

to enable detection. When you r

eceive an incoming le prompt, touch Accept to begin the transfer.

The received le will be saved under Files in the Wi-Fi Direct folder by default.

Turn Wi-Fi+ On or Off

Open

Settings, go to W

eless & networks > Wi-Fi >

> W

i-Fi+, and choose to enable or

disable

Wi-Fi+.
