Finding and sending files on a phone
How do I get my resume PDF from my phone onto my laptop?
The easiest way is to email it to yourself or put it in your cloud storage, then open it on the laptop. Both work on Android and iPhone and with any computer.
Options:
- Email: attach the PDF to an email to your own address, then download it on the laptop.
- Cloud storage: upload it to your cloud app and open the same account on the laptop.
- Messaging apps with a computer version: send it to yourself and download it there.
- Cable: connect the phone with a USB cable and copy the file across.
Whichever you use, open the file on the laptop to check it is the right version before attaching it to applications. Avoid leaving copies on shared or public computers.
