Huawei safe: everything you need to know
what is the safe
The safe is a very similar concept to the private space also from EMUI. The difference is that here we can save any file, and not just images, video or music.
The contents of this special folder will be encryption. In this way, no one but you will be able to access the content that is inside.
In order to access the content you will have to enter your fingerprint or a password. Whoever does not have these keys will not be able to see what you have saved in the folder.
How to activate it
But this folder is not created directly on the mobile. You will have to enable it from Settings>Security>Safe, and in seconds you will have it ready to start using it.
When you go to use it for the first time, you will need to configure it. At that time, you will be able to choose the place where you want this information to be saved. binder special. In the event that you do not indicate anything special, it will be saved in the root folder of the phone, but you can change the location if you wish.
Add files to Huawei
To add files to this folder you have two options. The first one is to do it from within the folder itself. To do this, you just have to click on the type of file that interests you and select the Add option. You will then be able to choose from all the files of that type that you have on your phone.
If what you want is to add the files from outside, you only have to go to the file that you want to move. By clicking on the menu, select the option Move to safe.
Keep in mind that this process is not as simple as copying and pasting. And it is that all the files that you send to this folder will no longer be available to all users. You will need to enter your fingerprint or password to access them.
Remove files from Huawei safe
In the event that you want to remove a file from the safe, the process is quite simple. Just long press on the file you want to put back into a "normal" folder. In the menu that appears, you must choose the option Take, and you'll have your file back in a regular folder.
