I am trying to transfer some videos I have on my Android phone or tablet (Nexus 6P and Nexus 7 2013) to friends at work. If they have Android devices we have many options that work, such as WiFi transfer apps, using a portable router that we both connect to to transfer files, or with a simple OTG cable and attached flashdrive.
With iOS friends phones (5S, 6 and 6S) I am stumped. I tried having them connect to a portable router and using the router maker's app navigate an attached flash drive to copy files to the iPhone but once the 'copy' is complete, the phone can't seem to know what to do with the file. (I tried MKV and MP4 files)
Using a work PC (Win 7) and Windows explorer to manually copy files doesn't seem to work either, since the files aren't being allowed to be copied to the iPhone. (and we can;t install other software on thew work PCs)
Has anyone been able to transfer videos FROM an Android phone TO an iOS phone and get them to playback on the iPhone?
Or has anyone been able to transfer files FROM a portable router and attached USB flashdrive and get them to play back on the iPhone?
(I don't mean to stream the video from the portable router, we want them to play the videos from their iPhone directly.)
Thanks!
