Abstract

A file sending method, a file receiving method, and related terminals, where a first terminal is configured to scan on a BLUETOOTH low energy (BLE) broadcast channel to obtain a broadcast packet from at least one second terminal, determine at least one discoverable second terminal based on the broadcast packet, determine a target terminal that is configured to receive a file and that is in the at least one discoverable second terminal, send a coupling request to the target terminal, establish a BLE coupling between the first terminal and the target terminal, and send WI-FI direct coupling parameters to the target terminal using a BLE data channel of the BLE coupling. The WI-FI direct is established between the first terminal and the target terminal.
