Next, choose where to save the files. The process differs by computer:

MacOS

Use AirDrop for the fastest transfer.

Windows doesn’t support AirDrop. Try one of these:

  • Local: On the home page, go to Settings → Export and turn on Export in Files, then export again. Files will appear in the Omniscient folder in the Files app. Connect your device to your computer and copy the files using iTunes or similar.
