How To Connect Android Phone To PC Via ShareIT

ShareIt for Android phones to transfer photos or files with another Android mobile. It’s a file-sharing app for smartphones.

ShareIt requires both devices to share files. Bluetooth sharing cannot be ignored in this, both devices must be connected first (using a pin). In the same way, file-sharing apps require the same LAN to send and receive files.

Files sharing

Basically, you can share files online and offline. Online sharing is for everyone offline sharing is for locals. Online file sharing is so easy today with social sites and online storage. A link to the file is provided by the host, so anyone can access these. Most file-sharing apps can be used in smartphones to send and receive files and support PC-to-smartphone sharing too.

To connect it check the version

First, to check before connecting your PC and Android phone you must check the version for both. This means an updated version is to be used on both devices.

I got the ShareIt app from my brother and used it without checking for updates. A few dates back (before writing this post) I had to transfer files from my phone to my PC then I felt the need to update it. I searched for the ShareIt app for my laptop and installed it, obviously the current version of it.

Why your PC is not connecting to your smartphone or any other device you have installed ShareIt?

Why your phone is not connecting to your PC? The first reason could be a version of the app. Just check the Google Store for updates. In my case, it was the old version of the mobile phone app the only reason I found when I visited the app page to add my review. You can not add your review if you have an old version and there is an updated version of the app. After updating it, I thought to try connecting once again and then add my review there. It worked and I am able to transfer files. It is so simple and it doesn’t need to add/create settings.
