<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>
