<h3><a href="#file-transfer">How do I transfer files to another device?</a></h3>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>Files can be transferred to another device using an external drive, USB
|
||||||
|
file transfer via MTP / PTP or an app-based mechanism.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>To use an external drive, plug it into the phone and use the system file
|
||||||
|
manager to copy files to and from it. The only difference on GrapheneOS is USB
|
||||||
|
peripherals such as USB flash drives will be ignored unless they're plugged in
|
||||||
|
at boot or when the device is unlocked. You can configure this in Settings ➔
|
||||||
|
Security.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>Transferring files to an attached computer is done with MTP / PTP. After
|
||||||
|
plugging in the phone to the computer, there will be a notification showing
|
||||||
|
the current USB mode with charging as the default. Pressing the notification
|
||||||
|
acts as a shortcut to Settings ➔ Connected devices ➔ USB. You can enable file
|
||||||
|
transfer (MTP) or PTP with this menu. It will provide read/write access to the
|
||||||
|
entire profile home directory, i.e. the top-level directory named after the
|
||||||
|
device in the system file manager. Due to needing to trust the computer with
|
||||||
|
coarse-grained access, we recommend transferring files with a flash drive or
|
||||||
|
an app with end-to-end encryption such sending the files to yourself via an
|
||||||
|
end-to-end encrypted messaging app like Element (Matrix).</p>
