How to Transfer Apps from Android to Android Wirelessly?

Published in Mobile Devices 2 mins read

You can transfer apps from one Android device to another wirelessly using Google's "Nearby Share" feature.

Here's how:

  1. Enable Nearby Share: On both your source and destination devices, go to Settings > Connected devices > Nearby Share and make sure it's turned on.
  2. Select the Apps to Transfer: On the source device, open the Play Store app and tap on your profile icon in the top right corner. Then, select My apps & games.
  3. Initiate Transfer: Choose the apps you want to transfer and tap on the Share icon. Select the destination device from the list of nearby devices, and the transfer will begin.

Tips:

  • Ensure both devices are close enough for the transfer to work.
  • Make sure you're signed into the same Google account on both devices.
  • If you have a large number of apps to transfer, it might be faster to use a cable connection.

Note: This method only transfers the apps themselves, not the data associated with them. You'll need to manually sign back into your apps and restore any data you want.
