Samsung has today updated its Smart Switch application on the Galaxy Store. This latest upgrade brings support for Galaxy-to-Galaxy transfer via USB On-The-Go (OTG), which makes it faster and easier than ever before to migrate content from your old smartphone to your new one.
For those unaware of USB OTG, it’s a networking standard that was introduced to Android back in 2014, which lets you plug in an external peripheral to your smartphone via a USB to microUSB cable. It also makes it possible for multiple devices to connect directly with each other.
Smart Switch makes great use of this innovative technology by empowering users to connect one phone to another. The application will then transfer all of the selected content stored on the old unit to the new handset, which includes any S Planner events, call logs, alarms, emails and Internet bookmarks.
There’s one main advantage of using this type of data transfer, and that’s speed. Prior to the implementation of USB OTG, the only options available for transferring files between devices was by switching out memory cards (which only worked if your old/new handset supported expandable storage), moving files over Wi-Fi or plugging into a computer and manually dragging/dropping the files.
However, all three methods above are slow and tedious. USB OTG means that you don’t need a memory card or a computer to move files. You just need to have the two devices ready and Samsung’s transfer cable handy, then you’re good to go.
