Devices & file access
Connect a device and your DatsMe folders show up in that device's own file picker — so any app on it can attach your files directly.
This is the feature that makes your DatsMe folders behave like any other place files live. Once a device is connected, opening a file picker in Gmail, Outlook, WhatsApp or anything else shows DatsMe alongside iCloud or Google Drive, and you pick a file straight out of it. There is nothing to download first. Three kinds of device can connect: an iPhone or iPad, an Android phone, and a computer through Finder or Explorer.
How to
- Make your DatsMe files available in this device's file pickerYou want to attach something from DatsMe to an email or a message without downloading it first.
What it can do
- Make your DatsMe folders appear in a device's normal file picker
- Attach a DatsMe file from any app that can attach a file
- Connect an iPhone or iPad, an Android phone, or a computer through Finder or Explorer
- Name each connection so you can tell them apart later
- See when a connection was last used
- Disconnect any device at any time
Worth knowing
⚠️ On an iPhone or iPad, DatsMe may not appear in Files until you switch it on there. The page tells you exactly how: open Files → Browse, tap ⋯ → Edit, and switch DatsMe on. Connecting is not enough on its own, and this is the step people miss.
⭐ Disconnecting is always available and does not touch your files — it only stops that device from reaching them.
Who can see it
A connection is between your account and a device you control — see Personal folders for what it exposes, which is your own private folders. See Who can see what.
