Which Devices Are Supported?

Smart Switch supports a wide range of devices, including:

  2. If using a wired connection, your device must support the ‘Transferring media files (MTP)’ USB option to enable content transfer.
  3. If you experience frequent disconnection from the wireless network with a non-Samsung device, navigate to Advanced Wi-Fi settings and disable the “Wi-Fi initialize” and “Disconnect low Wi-Fi signal” options before attempting again. (These options may vary depending on your device manufacturer and OS version.)
