Best way to transfer local files to my Android device.

I have a Xiaomi 11 Lite NE 5G. It comes with the painfully slow USB 2.0. I wish to transfer local music files to it, but it’s taking a long time to get copied over USB connection as well as it fails in-between sometimes. Is there any way to transfer the files in a quick and reliable manner?

Auto sync even while I sleep 😁

Do you have a wifi network? If yes then use a file explorer on Android that can do FTP. Use any FTP client on your computer and transfer. I recommend FileZilla.

For one-off file transfers between any two devices, I like to use justbeamit.com

For a long term link, use syncthing

Tried it, but it crashes when I choose the music folder.

Android transfers are really fucking stupid. I refuse to use Google drive or complicated sync that barely works and I refuse to pay money for an ftp transfer or samba share app that actually works, so I made a php file upload server. Yes, I see the irony. But I can upload files from my pc or from my phone and download them from my phone or my pc. It’s so much faster than any other method I can think of. Even using Windows where the android USB drivers are allowed to work is slower. Runs into issues less often. Php is such a piece of shit but in my case it’s a less shitty piece of shit than any possible alternative.

I myself use Google’s Quick Share for this. Falling that, the Send Anywhere app can also work - it’s not the fastest compared to Quick Share, but pretty reliable long as you have decent internet.
