| There are several ways to transfer the **AAPS** APK file from your computer to the smartphone. The easiest way is with a USB cable, moving the file from the computer to the "downloads" folder on the phone. However, we recommend using your **Google Drive** to do the transfer instead. By using **Google Drive**, you automatically have a **backup copy** of the apk file, which will be very useful if you lose or break your computer or smartphone. | ||
