Step 1: Insert the SD Card
The first thing you need to do is insert an SD card into your Huawei P9 Lite. Locate the SD card slot, which is usually on the side of the phone, and gently insert the card until it clicks into place. Ensure that the SD card is compatible with your device.
Step 2: Open the File Manager
Once the SD card is inserted, go to your app drawer and find the “File Manager” app. Tap on it to open the file management system on your Huawei P9 Lite.
Step 3: Locate the Photos
In the File Manager, you’ll see different folders and files. Look for the folder that contains your photos. It is often named “DCIM” or “Pictures.” Tap on the folder to open it and access your photos.
Step 4: Select the Photos
In the folder containing your photos, tap and hold on one of the images until a checkbox appears. Once the checkbox appears, release your finger, and the image will be selected. If you want to transfer multiple photos, tap on each one to select them. After selecting the photos you wish to transfer, tap the 3-dot menu icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Step 5: Choose “Move”
From the options provided in the menu, select the “Move” option. This action will allow you to move the selected photos from your device storage to your newly inserted SD card.
Step 6: Select the SD Card
Upon selecting “Move,” a list of available locations will appear. Find and tap on the SD card option to indicate that you want to transfer the selected photos to the card. This step is essential as it ensures the photos are moved to the correct destination.
Step 7: Confirm the Transfer
Once you’ve selected the SD card as the destination, tap the “Move” button to confirm the transfer. The selected photos will now be moved from your Huawei P9 Lite’s internal storage to the SD card.
Step 8: Verification
To ensure that the transfer was successful, open the SD card folder and locate the transferred photos. Open them to confirm that everything is intact. You may also verify by checking the storage space on your Huawei P9 Lite, which should now show an increase in available memory.
Transferring photos to an SD card on your Huawei P9 Lite is a simple and efficient way to create more space on your device. By following these easy steps, you can quickly move your photos to the SD card, allowing you to store more precious memories without worrying about limited storage capacity.
