<p>Transferring files to an attached computer is done with MTP / PTP. Users on
a Mac computer will need to install <a

able to transfer files between macOS and Android. After plugging in the phone to
the computer, there will be a notification showing the current USB mode with

to transfer files between macOS and Android. 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

or <b>PTP</b> 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
which does not include internal app data. Due to needing to trust the computer with
coarse-grained access, we recommend transferring files with a flash drive or by sending
the files to yourself via an end-to-end encrypted messaging app like Element (Matrix).</p>
