Part 2: Transfer from LG to Samsung Selected Files via Google Drive

One of the best things about Android devices is that they are automatically linked to a Google account. This means, you would get a 15 GB of storage on Google Drive that you can use to transfer data from LG to Samsung. Though, users can always buy more storage if they want to. In this way, you can first upload your files to Google Drive and later save them on your Samsung phone.

Needless to say, this is a very time-consuming process if you wish to transfer contacts from LG to Samsung or any other data type. Also, it will consume a lot of storage on your Google Drive. Ideally, the method is only recommended to transfer a handful of files from LG to Samsung.

Step 1: Upload your files to the Drive

Firstly, you can just launch the Google Drive application on your LG and tap on the “+” button to add a file. From the provided options, choose the “Upload” feature and browse to the location where your files are stored to upload them.

Part 3: Transfer Data from LG to Samsung via Samsung’s Smart Switch

Lastly, you can also take the assistance of Samsung Smart Switch to transfer data from LG to Samsung.

Needless to say, Smart Switch would only work if the target device is a Samsung and does not support other Android phones.

In this Smart Switch LG to Samsung solution, you can see that both the devices would be connected wirelessly. Therefore, this would take more time to transfer your data instead of a better LG to Samsung transfer app like MobileTrans.
