Equipped with a large screen and connected to an external keyboard, the tablet is an efficiency booster. However, when you need to transfer large files from your phone to your tablet, you have to use third-party applications, which is time-consuming.
With HONOR Multi-Screen Collaboration, you can not only achieve a dual screen connection and control your HONOR smartphone on your HONOR tablet, but also drag and drop files between two devices. This means you can be much more efficient when working across devices.

How to Use Multi-Screen
Collaboration to Achieve
Shortcut Actions
Once Multi-Screen Collaboration is enabled between your smartphone and tablet, the mobile phone screen will be mirrored on the tablet, which allows you to control your mobile phone applications on the tablet like answering calls, sending messages, etc.
You can also transfer files between two devices by long pressing and dragging the files and images. It’s more convenient when working or playing.
If there are problems such as file transfer failure and connection failure, don't worry, try to solve them by the following methods.
Multi-Screen Collaboration
Connection Failure
The collaborative connection between the mobile phone and the tablet may fail because the device name of the phone/tablet contains special characters or emojis, or the device name of the tablet has reached the maximum length that can be entered. It is recommended to modify the device name with letters, numbers, spaces, or underscores, and make sure that the character length is less than 30 characters.

Latency on the Tablet
Window once Enabling
Multi-Screen Collaboration
Slow response of the screen projection window on the tablet may be caused by factors like poor network quality and poor anti-interference performance. You can troubleshoot it by the following methods.
- • If the current WLAN network signal is weak, it is recommended to restart the router, or try to move to an area with stronger signal coverage to see if the tablet response returns to normal.
- • If the mobile phone and tablet are connected to different WLANs, you can reconnect the devices to the same network and enable Multi-Screen Collaboration again.
- • Metal and magnetic materials can easily interfere with the signal. If the mobile phone or tablet is equipped with a metal case, a magnetic case, a magnetic stand, or a magnetic chuck, it is recommended to temporarily remove it to see if the latency problem is solved.
- • If none of the above methods works, you can find settings on the tablet, search and go to reset network settings, and follow the on-screen instructions to reset it. This operation will delete Wi-Fi and Bluetooth related history and will need to reconnect to the network.
Failure to Drop and Drag
Files from Mobile Phone to
Tablet
If the mobile phone file cannot be dragged and dropped to the tablet after the collaboration is enabled, and the dragging animation is not displayed after long pressing the file, you can go to Settings > Accessibility Features> Accessibility > Interactive Control > Long Press Duration, and set the delay time as Short.
