I opened my onedrive app on my phone but I can now only see photo files, there is no obvious way to switch to see my files. How do I see my regular folders and files? Thank you.

I was going to be sacarstic and tell you that there was no such choice, but went to have another look at it.
Then I realised there 'is' Photo Files, not Photos and Files... And one of these 2 words is slightly ghosted.
So thank you for opening my eyes but no thanx to M S for not making it clearer. I'm sure many saw it too as "files from photos" and no other options

278 people bothered to ask this question. I guess others with the same problem did not so we can assume that this number is the tip of the iceberg. Amazing how such large companies can be unwilling to change things they get wrong.

2025-01-14T22:33:48+00:00 In my original post, I had marked all my OneDrive files as Keep on Server. Thus, the app had nothing to show for files,, not even the "Files" option, it only had photos. Once I made a few files available, the "Files" option showed up and solved the problem. I hope others can find this solution and solve their problem if it was the same as mine.
