Data transfer has long ceased to be a serious problem for Android users. Thanks to high-speed communication standards, today you can almost easily send the desired file from smartphone to smartphone. Another thing is that almost all of them, firstly, use the Internet, which means they waste traffic, and, secondly, they still do not work instantly, forcing the sender to spend time uploading the file, and the recipient to spend time downloading it. I'll tell you how to do it instantly.

How to quickly transfer files from Android to Mac or Windows. My favorite way
I’ll warn you right away: I understand perfectly well that if you really want to, you can find many more ways to send files from smartphone to smartphone than I’m going to offer. My goal is not to cover them all, but to offer the most convenient and common options that will suit everyone, or almost everyone. Still, it must be emphasized that at least one method will be available only to owners of smartphones of one specific brand. But given its popularity, there is no doubt about its applicability.
Via the VKontakte application
It’s worth mentioning right away that this method is only relevant for the official mobile version of VKontakte. The original application can be downloaded absolutely free of charge in any store, be it the App Store or Play Market, depending on the device OS.
The algorithm for transmitting a link through the VKontakte application is very simple:
- Let's go to the application.
- Open the page that needs to be sent.
- Click on the 3 dots (horizontal stripes) in the upper right corner of the application screen and get to the program menu.
- Find and select the line “Copy link”.
- We receive a notification from the smartphone that the link has been successfully copied to the device’s clipboard.
All! All that remains is to send the page address to the recipient.
As a rule, modern smartphones do not provide a separate visual menu item for the function of pasting previously copied text. It's hidden in the context.
And to bring up the context menu, you just need to pinch the screen area on the field in which you will need to paste the link. After such a simple manipulation, a submenu will open in which the functions of inserting, copying and selecting will be available.
The transfer can be done in the VK application itself. To do this, just go to the correspondence section and paste the contents of the exchange buffer into the field of a new message/friend's feed/comment - in general, anywhere.
Alternatively, you can use any other instant messenger, including messages from your mobile operator. The link is saved on the device and patiently awaits the logical completion of the “copy-paste” process.
How to copy a link on an Android phone
Let's start with the fact that the principle of copying links directly depends on the specific application. And if in the browser it is enough to highlight the address bar and press the button of the same name, then in the YouTube application such an action is not enough. Below are instructions for the most popular services and programs.
Option 1: in the browser
It is worth noting that the name of the browser does not play any role. The algorithm of actions is often similar and is as follows:
- Open the browser and go to the site of interest.
- Next, click on the address bar where the resource URL is located.
- Then, using the “Copy” button or a similar icon, select the name of the site.
Click on the “Copy” icon
After this, a message with similar text should appear on the screen: “URL copied.”
Option 2: on Instagram
First of all, go to the mobile client, then:
- Open the video or photo you are interested in.
- Next, click on the “three dots” located in the upper right corner near the publication.
- Now from the list that opens, select “Copy link”. You can also click on the “Share link” item. The system will then offer options for sending the post URL.
Click “Copy link”
Now go to the conversation you are interested in and send the link to your interlocutor.
Option 3: In the YouTube app
First, let's launch the mobile video hosting client, where we'll go to the desired video. After this, follow the instructions:
- Below the video, click on the “Share” button.
Click “Share”
2. From the menu that opens, select “Cop. link."
Click “Cop.” link"
If the copy is successful, the system will display the message “Copied.” You can then paste the resulting link into the address bar of your browser, or send it to a friend.
Option 3: in the VKontakte application
First of all, we’ll open the application, where we’ll go to the post, video or photo of interest. Next we will do the following:
- In the right corner next to the title of the publication, click on the “three dots”.
- Then from the list that opens, select “Copy link”.
Click “Copy link”
After completing the operation, the message “Link copied to clipboard” should appear at the bottom of the screen.
Via internet browser
You can also get a copy of the address of the page you are interested in in the browser version of VK. And there is absolutely nothing complicated here either:
- Open any browser on your device to access the Internet.
- We enter “VK” in the search engine and go to the page.
- In the browser version of the program, enter your login and password for VK.
- After successful authorization, we go to the page that you want to send a link.
- Place the cursor in the address bar at the top.
- In the same way as in the previous method, we call the context menu by pressing the field with the link.
- From the list of submenus that opens, select the “Copy” function.
The process of sending a link is carried out in a similar way to the method described above through the VKontakte application.
Finally, it is worth recalling the need to use exclusively official versions of VK. Otherwise, along with the link, you can receive an unpleasant bonus in the form of virus software, and it is quite possible that not even one.
Thematic applications
Having mentioned copying, we’ll talk about several applications from Google Play for working with text information.

How to share a link to your Instagram account from your phone?
We figured out how to copy. But maybe there is another way to share your page? Of course have. We can make a business card.

- Click on the icon with a human figure in the lower right corner. If you have several profiles, there will be an avatar there.
- Click on the three horizontal lines in the upper right corner.
- In the pop-up menu, click on “Instagram business card”.
- The finished card will immediately open to us. You can change its appearance, but in this regard there are not so many possibilities. By the way, at the bottom there is a button thanks to which you can scan other people's business cards.

- After clicking, a window will appear with instant messengers in which you can leave the received card.
- That's all, users just have to scan the resulting image.
Why can't I follow the link to my account?
So, let's say you did everything according to one of the methods above, but the resulting URL does not transfer to your profile. With what it can be connected? Problems can only occur if you complete “Instagram.com/” with your username. Make sure you didn't misspell, there are no mistakes and the slash is in the right direction. The remaining methods are elementary, work like clockwork, and it is unlikely that an error can creep into the result. In general, all problems with URLs are associated with errors in the text of the address itself, so checking the correctness of each letter usually allows you to correct the link.

- Touch the button. The text is copied from the Android phone's clipboard and saved.
There are no special characters in the functionality of smartphones, and images of characters are not recognized. To insert a designation into the file you are editing, you need to get the element from the encoding table. User action algorithm:
- Follow the service link.
- Find the symbol. Touch the icon with your finger.

There are apps that make it easier to copy text on your phone. The Textcopy utility saves information from a browser or mobile client of social networks in one touch. The software not only collects, saves and edits data, but also translates foreign articles into Russian.
AnyCopy minimizes the number of user movements when copying text. A person sends data to a buffer using the standard method, and the application picks up the information on the fly. Notes are sorted, modified, and deleted. The program supports encryption and allows you to set a four-digit password for access.
How to save links on Android
Users store their favorite material from a browser or social networking application in separate files. To make working with links easier, we recommend installing special software.
My Clipboard is a convenient utility that will save up to 500 URLs. After installation, the software hangs in the background and does not annoy people with advertising. Picks up data from the clipboard, allows you to sort and export.
Pocket is a post-reading service that saves links to articles you like. A button appears in the browser that sends the URL to the application. The utility synchronizes with all devices, including PCs.
Let's look at the main problems that may arise when copying.
Question to the expert
Why is text from Facebook and Twitter not copied in the browser?
The developers have blocked actions in any applications except their own software.
Why doesn't my phone save all the data when copying?
The clipboard has a limited resource (20-30 elements), so it saves the last actions.
How to clear your smartphone's buffer?
Go to messages (text editor), call up the keyboard. In the bottom row, press the button in the form of a nut, select an icon in the shape of a folder with a sheet. In the menu that opens, you can manually delete unnecessary data.
