Have any of you used the ability to transfer files over an ultrasonic ad
hoc network between two devices, particularly between iOS & Android?

If so, would you kindly lend your experienced suggestions and advice to
this cross-platform thread which discusses ultrasonic file transfers.

Woo hoo! I love cross-platform portability!

I noticed this thread speaks of yet another way to transfer data between devices using *ultrasonic* audio between compatible devices' speakers/mics.

Since I have iOS & Android devices, I'm going to look into this cross
platform *ultrasonic* capability since it doesn't need Wi-Fi or cable.
<https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00048603/>

The *ultrasonic" file transfer seems to "run" on Windows, macOS,
and Android (but does the ultrasonic file transfer work on iOS?).
<https://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/smart-switch>

And yet, Samsung "says" it can transfer between iPhone and Android.
<https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00061001/>
But, they seem to be using the iCloud (which isn't ultrasonic).

So it's confusing, at least to someone who has never used it (like I).

If anyone here has already used ultrasonic file transfer, please let me
know what you can teach me about it, as it sounds like good functionality.

The first question to ponder is which of the _many_ related ultrasonic
file transfer apps is best where this is the canonical Samsung app.

Second question is _how_ does it work. For example, if it uses the cloud,
it's not "really" transferring between two devices over a peer-to-peer
connect.

Is it truly transferring files using an *ultrasonic* ad hoc network
between two devices?

If so, what two devices (particularly, can it go between iOS & Android)?

In summary, I was unaware of *ultrasonic* file transfer until I read this thread today, where I'd like to transfer files ultrasonically between
either iOS and Android (and vice versa) or between iOS/Android & the PC.

Anyone with experience in such ad hoc ultrasonic file transfer is

there is no such ability, because it's a stupid concept.

go look at the photos of your textbooks for a clue as to why.

*Transferring data using high frequency audio*
<https://groups.google.com/g/comp.mobile.android/c/X7kTY-VLvnU>

the original claim is bogus, which explains why you think it's true.

Since I have iOS & Android devices, I'm going to look into this cross platform *ultrasonic* capability since it doesn't need Wi-Fi or cable.

of course you will.

while you're at it, maybe you can look into finding the votes trump
thinks were for him.

So it's confusing, at least to someone who has never used it (like I).

everything is confusing to you, because you lack rational thought.

Second question is _how_ does it work. For example, if it uses the cloud, it's not "really" transferring between two devices over a peer-to-peer connect.

it works by using wifi.

Is it truly transferring files using an *ultrasonic* ad hoc network
between two devices?

no.

Hi nospam,

As I said, I was completely unaware of this ad hoc *ultrasonic* pairing
and, as I also said, I wish to test this feature out using my iPads.

While your IQ is (sadly) below average, you're actually the _smartest_ of
all the iKooks, which means, sometimes (rarely, but sometimes) you know technical stuff, where, in this case, I already said I've never used this reputed ad hoc ultrasonic networking between two compatible devices.

I'm hoping you know more about this ultrasonic file transfer than I do. However...

In most cases where networking works between Linux/Windows/PC/mac/Android,
it's usually iOS that's crippled (generally only iOS is crippled, not mac).

It's common knowledge you're most vehement when you're _afraid_ of the crippling of iOS being discussed, so I take note you fear this feature.

And, since FACTS are all I care about, I also take note of Andy Burns' response, since _he_ is far more credible than you will ever be, nospam.
"ultrasonic just uses mic and speaker"
"With chromecasts, it just uses the ultrasonic "connection"
to do the wifi pairing ...
I'd imagine the audio transfer rate is pretty low?"

This is interesting, in that it appears that ad-hoc "Wi-Fi pairing" is negotiated via an "ultrasonic" network between devices' "mic & speaker".

Do you know of an equivalent IOS app I can test this ultrasonic connection between dissimilar devices (iOS & Android) to effect the Wi-Fi pairing?

chromecasts *can* use ultrasonic for *pairing* to use wifi, although
that's not the only method.

ultrasonic is *not* for file transfer, which as i said before is a
stupid idea.

you also originally asked about samsung switch, not chromecasts, so the
above is irrelevant to your question.

you claim to be be 'highly educated', even claiming to have a degree in electrical engineering, yet you do not know basic signal theory, or
english for that matter. is your diploma also a photo?

What's the advantage of ultrasonic negotiation of the initial ad hoc
network over the more common methods of initial ad hoc negotiations?

none.

Hi nospam,

I asked a simple question, which you obviously avoided answering...

The fact you're always so desperate to deflect from any discussion which
shows iOS to be crippled (which, sadly, is most technical conversations),
is duly noted, as is the fact you avoided answering the direct question.

Nonetheless, I will repeat that I'm asking why the _negotiation_ is via ultrasound, not the file transfer, per se (as you seem to whoosh on).

Perhaps my question on the adult smartphone newsgroup will make it clear? Here's what I just posted for Andy Burns (who is credible) to help with:

With chromecasts, it just uses the ultrasonic "connection" to do the wifi pairing ... I'd imagine the audio transfer rate is pretty low?

Hi Andy,
I'm sorry if these are simplistic questions, as I had originally thought
file transfer was over an ad hoc ultrasonic network between two devices.

And I wish to repeat I have _zero_ experience with ultrasonic negotiation
of ad hoc networks (as my past ad hoc networks were usually bluetooth).

If file transfer is over Wi-Fi, and if both devices are on the same
network, why would you even need the initial ultrasonic negotiation?

And, if both devices are NOT on a Wi-Fi network, then why not just
negotiate the connection & affect the file transfer both with Bluetooth?
[Yes, I know Bluetooth transfer is slower than is Wi-Fi but this is about
the negotiation part of the ad hoc network - not the transfer per se.]

What's the advantage of ultrasonic negotiation of the initial ad hoc
network over the more common methods of initial ad hoc negotiations?

on the App Store that replicates the related Android functionality.

You're literally _afraid_ of answering that simple question of iOS.

Almost all your responses, so far, in this thread, in fact, are the same responses you always elicit when you're _afraid_ of the question asked.

What's different about a well-educated person who is confident in what he

and I'm not afraid to admit I am new to any given topic - yet you are.

The fact you can't answer the simplest of questions that I asked multiple
times of which free iOS apps replicates this Android functionality is yet another indicator that either you lack the knowledge you claim to own,
or, more likely, you're aware of something I'm not yet aware of, but which

*What iOS apps exist today on the App Store that replicate this feature?*

What's the advantage of ultrasonic negotiation of the initial ad hoc

none.

I asked that question on the _adult_ smartphone newsgroup, where the answer will be forthcoming, I'm sure, since they're not afraid of the question.

You are literally quaking right now, probably shivering in fear, simply
because someone asked a simple question of what iOS apps exist which take advantage of the ultrasound ad hoc network negotiation feature we speak of.

It's a proprietary protocol that works only between certain devices from

It's OS-level if it's setting the WiFi onto a different network.

too cheap to add a bluetooth radio and do it properly.

Might it be that iOS is so crippled it can't this simple basic task?

It's a proprietary protocol that works only between certain devices from
the same manufacturer or at least licensed from the same manufacturer.

It's OS-level if it's setting the WiFi onto a different network.

And, oh:

And don’t forget that it is an Arlen Fact that Apple’s Bluetooth is “non-standard”.

Even though it works just fine with every Bluetooth device on the planet.

Not to mention that Apple could not call it “Bluetooth” if it was - in Actual Fact - “non-standard”.

Which very nicely explains the difference between Actual Facts and Arlen
Facts.
