Transfer stuck halfway? Try these fixes

A browser transfer lives in the page. If the page stops running, the transfer stops.

How to do it

  1. Keep both screens awake and both pages in the foreground.
  2. Check both devices are still online.
  3. Turn off VPNs and low-power mode on both devices.
  4. If it still hangs, pair again and resend the remaining files.

Why it happens

Phones pause web pages in the background to save battery. Switching apps mid-transfer is the most common cause.

Large files

Send very large files one at a time, and split a big batch into smaller ones.

Try it with the two devices you have

Open SpareDisk on both, scan the QR code, type the reply code, and send. Free to start, no account.
