# Download, Rename and Delete files (App)

CONTEXT



This guide describes how to manage files in the AjourBox app. The guide covers three actions in the file list: downloading a file to your device, renaming a file and deleting a file. The guide is based on the app view.



RELEVANCE



You need this guide when you want to access a file offline on your device, when a file needs a different name to be easier to identify, or when a file is no longer relevant and must be removed from the folder.



PREREQUISITES AND REQUIREMENTS




You must have access to the AjourBox app and the relevant project



Your user and company must have been granted access to the folder



You must have the necessary permissions to edit or delete files in the folder



You must have navigated to the folder that contains the file



You must have an internet connection to be able to download a file




GUIDE (step by step)



Download a file



Step 1: Find the file in the file list. Files that have not yet been downloaded to your device are shown with a download icon next to the file name.



Step 2: Tap the download icon next to the file.



Step 3: Wait while the download completes. A short loading indicator is shown, and then the file is marked with a checkmark, showing that the file has now been downloaded to your device.



Step 4: Tap the file to open it. The file opens and is displayed in the device's own file viewer.



Step 5: Tap the "Share" icon if you, for example, need to save the file locally on your device or send the file by e-mail.



Rename a file



Step 5: Tap the icon with three vertical dots next to the file you want to rename.



Step 6: Select Rename in the menu that appears.



Step 7: Edit the file name in the text field. The field is pre-filled with the file's current name, so you can add to or change parts of the name.



Step 8: Tap Rename to save the new name, or tap Cancel to cancel. The file is then shown with the new name in the file list.



Delete a file



Step 9: Tap the icon with three vertical dots next to the file you want to delete.



Step 10: Select Delete in the menu that appears.



Step 11: Confirm the deletion in the dialog that appears by tapping Delete. Tap Cancel if you change your mind.



Important: Check that it is the right file before you confirm the deletion. The file is removed from the file list when you confirm, and this cannot be undone.
