Copy and paste with the Clipboard
In the past, you had to send an email to your laptop or tablet whenever you wanted to copy and paste text from your phone. But that's no longer the case with Samsung Flow! You can easily copy and paste between devices - no email required.
First, make sure your phone and your desired device are connected. On the laptop or tablet, select the Clipboard icon. It will glow blue when the feature is activated. Next, copy your desired text on the phone. If it was successful, a popup will appear on the other device that says "Copied to clipboard."
On your laptop or tablet, navigate to wherever you want to put the text. Then, just paste the text like you normally would. Whatever you copied from the phone will appear!
If you want to do the opposite, like copy text from your laptop or tablet and paste it on your phone, just reverse these steps. Just make sure the Clipboard feature is still active.
Screen mirror with Smart View
What if you want to work on one device without having to switch back and forth multiple times? In this case, you should use Samsung Flow's Smart View feature.
It lets you mirror your phone's screen to your laptop or tablet. But that's not all. You can actually control the phone too! It's perfect for multitasking, especially if you need both devices at once.
Share a mobile hotspot
The Wi-Fi is going in and out, and you have to send that essay to your professor ASAP. Use the mobile hotspot on your phone to save the day!
- From your phone’s Settings, search for and select Mobile Hotspot.
- Tap Mobile Hotspot, and then tap the switch at the top of the screen to turn it on.
- On your PC, select the network icon on the task bar and select your phone's hotspot from the list. If you set a password, you'll be prompted to enter it.
- When you're ready to turn off the mobile hotspot, navigate back to the Mobile Hotspot settings menu, and then tap the switch again.
