This is a super simple guide for moving files between your Jolla and your Linux/Mac computer. No command line required

1. Step: Enable developer mode

Settings -> System -> Developer mode

Check the 2 first options and enter a password of your choice. Write down the password.

2. Step: Turn your computer on and log into your user account if you haven't already

3. Step: Connect your Jolla to your computer with an usb cable and choose Developer mode from the pop-up dialog. Put your Jolla on the table, you won't need to use it for the rest of this guide.

4. Step: Open your computer's file manager. On Ubuntu it looks like this:

5. Step: In the file manager, navigate to sftp://192.168.1.15 (the USB IP adress as seen in the first picture).

On Ubuntu you can enter this location from the menu bar.

6. Step: When prompted, enter the password you set in step 1. The user name is nemo.

7. Step: Done! You are now at the very bottom of the file system. Be careful not to mess stuff up! Here's what you should see right now on Ubuntu:

Unmount your Jolla by clicking the icon seen in the screenshot next to the mouse before removing the USB cable. Also, turn off Remote connection (set in step 1) for maximum safety.

Additional info: You can find your pictures, videos and music under home -> nemo in folders named Music and Pictures. Your SD card is located at media -> sdcard under one of the folders. Don't worry about the strange names.
