Hi!
I can see the SMS on the screen of AirDroid on my PC. How do I save the file to my computer?
It's not in the PublicStaging folder (inside my docs) for some reason, although that's the destination defined in the settings.

Hi,

If you choose "Photos" on web.airdroid.com to transfer, you may not be able to change the path to save pics.

You mya try to transfer on "Files" on web, then you can select the folder you want to transfer.

Re: [Help & FAQ] What’s Backup?

Hi,

I specifically payed for premium so that I can backup my videos too, this doesn't seem to work. AirDroid is backing only photos at the moment.



Both android app and windows (8.1) desktop app have version is 3.2.6

Hi Dan, would you please open AirDroid on your phone, and check the user center to see if it has become Premium account?

If yes, pls try it again to open Camera.

If not, would you please log out and log in again to refresh the account status to make it become Premium account, and then try it again
