Welcome, in front of me is a ZTE Axon 11 and today I'll show you how to transfer files
0:10
from your device to an SD card and vice versa. So to get started, let's open up the File Explorer app, once I actually find it
0:35
So File Manager, now that took a little bit longer than expected, but there we go
0:39
So once you open it up, let's allow whatever it wants. And from here you should see your both storages, so phone and SD card
0:47
I believe my photos that I will use as an example are on the phone, I'm just gonna quickly
0:52
check and yep, there they are. So let's start with the phone, as you will see, SD card basically has the same folders
1:00
here, so I'm just gonna go over one. And at the beginning we have the DCIM, so this is the folder that will contain your
1:08
photos, videos captured with the device. And below that we have pictures, which will contain screenshots
1:16
Downloads folder containing anything that you have downloaded either to your web browser or email, it all gets saved here
1:22
And then majority of the other folders are usually empty. Things like the alarm, movies, music, notifications, podcasts, ringtones
1:30
If you didn't download any kind of app, specific app that would save in there, then those folders
1:36
will be empty. So let's find our files, which like I said I'm gonna use the photos that I have captured
1:42
as an example. Once you find them, all you need to do is simply hold the first one, it gets selected
1:48
and then you can tap on additional ones to select them additionally
1:52
Now you can also select all of them by tapping on the checkmark right up here, once you select
1:56
a single one, as you will deselect, so you can see it's not visible here, once you select
2:01
one it pops up and you can tap to select all. And this is also a way that you could select majority of the photos or files, so if you
2:12
don't want for instance couple out of like a hundred, you can simply deselect them after
2:16
selecting all. Or if you want all of them, probably the more cleaner approach to it would be just selecting
2:23
the entire folder itself, along with everything that is inside of it
2:28
Now whichever way you do it, it's completely up to you, but once you select it, you have
2:33
two ways of dealing with it, so you have the copy, right here that's the copy with the
2:38
two pages, or also move, which will completely remove the files from where they are right
2:43
now and move them to a new location. Copy just creates additional set of the same files and moves them to a new location, where
2:50
all the old ones stay where they are. Choose whichever one you want, I'm gonna go with move, and from here you want to basically
2:58
navigate where you want to move them. At the moment we're on the phone storage, so we can back out, and from here for instance
3:06
go to the SD card if that's where you want to move it. And you can navigate into folders if you want to, or you can simply drop it right where
3:13
we are right now, and there we go, so now camera folder should be, there we go, right
3:18
over here, along with the four photos inside of it. And if we go back to the phone itself, under the DCIM, you can see that this folder is
3:26
now completely empty, that is previously where we had the camera folder
3:31
Now the same process will work for any kind of file, I just kinda used a folder or pictures
3:38
as an example, but the process is exactly the same for anything that you want to move
3:42
music, movies, photos, podcasts, documents, it works the same way. And if you found this very helpful, don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and thanks
