Thank you!!! Finally, someone that explained it like you were showing a child. Easy for me to understand and finally transfer my pics over.

Very articulate, clearly explained. I highly recommend this video for those who are frustrated with other videos that do not clearly, calmly and professionally explain the process. This video was very pleasant and qjite refreshing to view. We thank the provider of this video for making the effort to provide those of us are are somewhat lacking in basic computor and software knowledge. We HIGHLY recommend viewing this video. I believe it will be a tremendous, refreshing source of help. Again, our thanks and gratitude to whoever did this youtube video. Greatly appreciated.

Sincere Regards,

I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to share how to do this. The footage I have here, is of a loved one who passed. My nephew. And to say this is important is an understatement. So even though everything is in our minds and we remember . these pictures are too important…

[kylie-gracewagner]

Perfect! Thank you. I had gotten extremely frustrated trying to copy to my connected external Micro SD (Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra) using a secondary Files app with absolutely no luck. Using the Samsung My Files app works perfectly. Thanks again

[mkusanagi]

man i spent a darn 20 minutes trying to copy/paste. couldn't find that carry-around "Copy here" dialog box option. thank you very much. 🙂

[mkusanagi]

Wow amazing. Again i looked for hours to find click "internal storage" step, when going from thumb to s20. Thank you IT guy! 😊

[jamesbaker]

Awesome! Thank you for making this video. I kept trying to move my pictures to an SD just like this, but from my gallery app and couldn't figure out why i couldn't do it lol

[TheUsualSuspekt]

Thank you It's a little convoluted but it does the job. I went to Tmobile and they were telling me I needed to get a specific OTG Samsung drive and that mine was not compatible. I knew right away that was bullshit and came here! I also like how when mounted you can share on social media as well!

[ckduke]

Great video, perfectly explained and easily understood: thank you
Can we discover if someone else accessed our phone n copied information? Thanks in advance ❤

[harry]

Thanks mate👌🤙 was badly searching for it😍

[lucamaretti]

@jtjungles i cant copy the file because the option 'copy here' is grey and so i cant copy the file on my hard disk. Do you know why ?
I have a samsung S21 Fe 5g

[reneehellyer]

This is making me crazy. I Have the S21+ and when I plug in the flash drive, it doesn't show up when I go to "my files". I've tried everything under the sun and can't get it to work. I just want to back up my pictures without using a When i have the memory stick in, and open up my files, it looks identical to what yours does, before adding your memory stick... Please help.. It's as though it will not use that port as anything other than charging..

[ossiningsue]

You helped me tremendously. You are my hero! Thank you so much

[Vder]

can you just use Smart Switch to do it cuz it copies everything including your SD storage

[skarena]

Bro how do I STORE my photos and videos to the s21 phone though? I can see it all but I don't know how to store in my phone.

[conceptdesigns]

Awesome vid. I was about to get rid of my S21 when I found out there was no SD card slot 🤦‍♂️

[almondtofu]

Do i have to buy SD card separately? I got 64GB USB card for my phone and even if i transver files to it, my storage doesn't get smaller.

[HuntingWolf]

I bought a SD reader for my s21 ultra, when I put my micro SD from my dash camera in. It deletes the files on the SD card everytime, why does this happen and how can I fix?

[and-c]

Mine doesn't show the usb storage

[treasureempressdreamz]

I don't have a the option to select to unmount my SD card
