File Management

Tap open-button to launch the file manager and preview, open and manage your files.

Tap the name of a file to open it.

Navigate folders by tapping on parent-folder-button or on folder names.

File Operations

Basic operations:

Press and hold the name of a file in order to rename, delete, share, copy or cut.

When a file has been copied or cut, you can Paste it in another folder from the file-menu-button menu.

Tap file-menu-button and New folder to create a new folder.

Multiple file selection:

Tap file-select-button to enter file selection mode.

Select one or more files and then tap on the Copy , Cut or Delete buttons at the bottom of the screen.

After copy or cut, move to another folder and tap on the Paste button to copy or move your files.

Notes:

Only files can be selected, not folders. If you need to move or copy an entire folder, press and hold its name.

Deleting non-empty folders (recursive delete) is not supported, because there is not Thrash folder. Use a dedicated file manager app for this purpose.

You may also directly delete or rename the current file from the editor's menu.

To import a file from an external application such as the music player or a third party file manager, tap file-menu-button and then Import.

To transfer your files to a computer, exit TapeMachine, connect your phone with a USB cable and enable USB Memory Card Access (or File Copy).

A new drive should appear on your computer. Open it and access you files in the /media/tapes folder.
