Creating Or Extracting Archives; Excluding Small Images; Storing Private Files In A Safe - Huawei Mate 8 User Manual

You can combine multiple files into a single zip archive. This format uses less storage
space and is easy to share.

Open Files.
2
In the Local tab, touch Internal storage or SD card.

Select the files or folders you want to add to the archive, and then touch
Compress.
4
Choose the archive destination. The selected files will then be compressed into a zip
archive, which will be named automatically.
To extract an archive, touch and hold on the archive file, and then touch
Extract to. Select where the archive should be extracted to.

Excluding small images

When viewing images, you may find that Files also displays lots of cached images and
thumbnails from web pages you have visited. Exclude these images for a clutter-free
viewing experience.

Storing private files in a Safe

encrypt them. You can always remove them from the Safe at a later date.
