Step by step

1. 

   Open Device Connect

   Open Settings and tap Device Connect, below Mobile network.

   Done

2. 

   Tap Share with iPhone or PC

   Scroll down to Sharing & assistance: Share files with nearby devices. Ours said Off.

   Done

3. 

   Turn on Share with iPhone or PC

   The page says: Transfer files with an iPhone or PC that has O+ Connect installed. Automatically turns off 10 minutes after being turned on. How to install? on the same page explains the iPhone app; OPPO says the iPhone needs O+ Connect and iOS 15.0 or later.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• No Share with iPhone or PC row? OPPO says transfers between OPPO phones and iPhone need ColorOS 15.0 or later, so older ColorOS versions don't have it. Source: Reno16 Pro 5G
• Use Quick Share instead? Google says Quick Share can send to an iPhone through AirDrop on certain OPPO phones. On our Reno13 (ColorOS 16.0.5) the Who can share with you sheet offered Your devices, Contacts, Everyone and Everyone for 10 minutes, with no iPhone option.

• To a PC? Tap the PC tile at the top of Device Connect. It opens Multi-Screen Connect, which first asks you to switch on Nearby devices and Notifications; Agree and continue was greyed out on ours with both off. Source: Your OPPO and Computer Have a Connection

If this does not work

• Switch went off by itself? It turns off 10 minutes after being turned on; turn it on again before you send.
• iPhone can't find the OPPO? OPPO lists O+ Connect on the iPhone and iOS 15.0 or later. Source: Reno16 Pro 5G

About this guide

ColorOS 16 has its own way to send files to an iPhone. We checked where it lives on our Reno13.

The screenshots are from our OPPO Reno13 5G, the European model CPH2689, with ColorOS 16.0.5 and Android 16 (build CPH2689_16.0.5.1001(EX01)), in Dark mode. We opened the pages but did not turn sharing on or link a device.

Good to know

Moving everything from an iPhone? See copy data from an iPhone.

In short: Settings, Device Connect, Share with iPhone or PC on; O+ Connect on the iPhone.
