Guides

Every device family has its own way of moving things around, and each one stops at the edge of its own ecosystem. These guides go through the built-in options first, say plainly where they run out, and show what to do in between.

Copy text from your phone to your computer

An address, a phone number, a tracking link. It is on the phone and you need it on the computer, and typing it over is not an option.

Share a clipboard between iPhone and Windows

The one combination neither Apple nor Microsoft built for: an iPhone in your hand and a Windows PC on the desk.

Transfer files from Android to a Mac

Two devices that both do everything, and between them the most basic task is oddly difficult.

Share a Wi-Fi password with another device

Twenty-six random characters on a sticker behind the router, and a television remote with an on-screen keyboard.
