### Send

1. Open Bytesweep on both devices, on the same Wi-Fi, and open **Send to Devices**.
2. Tap the device. Your phone is the centre of the rings.
3. Tap **Send to** and choose what to send.
4. On the other device, tap **Accept**. A new device shows a code: accept only if it matches.

### Copy or move

Send makes copies. **Move** sends, checks they arrived, then asks to delete them from this phone.

### Where things arrive

On iPhone

In Files, under On My iPhone → Bytesweep → Received. Press **Save to Photos** for pictures. Keep the app open while receiving.

On Android

In Downloads/Bytesweep. Keep the app open while receiving.

### Not showing up?

On iPhone

Turn on Local Network for Bytesweep in Settings. In **Not showing up?**, scan the other device's code. A Mac and this iPhone also find each other without a Wi-Fi network, as long as Wi-Fi is on.

On Android

Under **Not showing up?**, type the other device's address. With no Wi-Fi, use**Make a network**. Turn off the phone's own hotspot first.

### Limits

10 free sends, then the one-time unlock. Receiving is free.
