  2. Select a file, photo or go to the URL that you want to share and tap the share button.
  3. Tap OpenScape Mobile Pro.
  4. Tap Just once if you want to share to OpenScape Mobile Pro only this time or Always if you to make it the default app to share files.
    Note: If you select Always, your device will automatically attempt to use OpenScape Mobile Pro for sending attachments without asking you again
