no data plan-Can I still save my pictures to something permanent?

Greetings @cassy4paws!
 
This is a wonderful inquiry which you have brought to our attention here in the Community Forums. I can understand the importance of saving your most valuable pictures in a trusted source. Let’s go over this together!
 
You have several awesome options to transfer your data out. You can either save your pictures to your memory card, or you can also connect your device to a PC via USB cable to transfer pictures. The good thing is you can learn how to do this by checking out our awesome Device Support Tool. Select your make and model phone, click on View all Solutions > select Camera & Media to get started.
 
Let us know how it works out. Have an awesome rest of your day!

I take it this is only good for pictures you took on your own phone. What
about pictures sent to you? That is what I REALLY want to know.

Hello @cassy4paws,

 

Saving pictures in your gallery will allow your CPU to access them in files. You may then save and move files and pictures onto your computer.

 

I hope you find this helpful. Let us know if you have any other questions, and have a wonderful day!
