    Sounds like you don’t understand tech at all. Some of us have been using smart phones since palm and blackberry. Earlier versions of Android didn’t need the confirmation at all, assuming that it was defaulted to file access.

    I’ve been android since the beginning and my last few phones (all pixels) I don’t remember having to approve the usb connection after the first time.

    Can you plug a random phone into a pc and access files? Probably not.

    Can you plug your own phone into a pc it’s been connected to prior and access files even with a broken screen? More likely yes, than no.

    You and the other minions downvoting me should try reading my entire comments as many times ad needed for you to grasp the very basic concepts at play.

    And to repeat. You have no idea how the file system on android works. You most definitely can delete/backup/etc the photos, screenshots, etc on the phone via USB. You can not easily access app data as thats encrypted and stored elsewhere.

    You kids need to get off the internet before you hurt yourself.

    This is starting to feel more and more like reddit, that’s not a good thing.

      Dude you dont even know whether I use android or apple and youre making assumptions about how MY PHONE works. My phone requires that permission be granted to access data from the phone. Telling me again that I can fix this doing something I have already tried is a waste of both of our time. It didnt fucking work. Do you understand? You can fuck right off with this “I know how your phone works better than you do despite not knowing anything at all about it.”

      Not if the phone doesn’t give permission to lol. I speak from personal experience of a Pixel 3a. Previously connected and all.

      Huh, that’s odd. The same user having the same shitty experience across multiple platforms with no other discernable commonality. What a puzzle, we’ll never figure it out.

        Way to out yourself as one of the idiots I’m talking about. Reddit is full of jackasses who think they are the epitome of knowledge on a subject when the opposite is the truth, the ones who post the most telling others they are wrong are the ones who don’t know shit about jack, sadly these numbnuts are making there way here, apparently you are one of them.
