- lilyball 7y agoI believe the control is based on which device you plug the cable into first, except it's impossible to remember and confusing.
- DannyB2 7y agoWith a Pixelbook and Android phone, it is completely predictable. You choose which does what using UI controls on each device. You can specify whether this device will provide charge to the other device. Whether this device will share files with the other device. And the other device can specify that it will be charged, and will receive files. There is no guesswork about it. No mystery.
