Browse files in both systems

QTS : 

QTS File Station has many file and folder management features to let 

you effectively manage your files. You can directly drag a file or folder from a 
PC or Mac to File Station to upload it to the TAS-168/268.

Android™ : 

You can download Qfile from Qmarket to browse your files on 

Android™.  If you are familiar with Android™ file management apps (such as ES 
File Explorer File Manager) you can also download them from Google Play™.

Enjoy multimedia on both systems

QTS : 

You can enjoy multimedia on the TAS-168/268 using built-in 

multimedia applications such as Photo Station, Video Station, and Music 
Station. Go to QTS > “Control Panel” > “Multimedia Management” to set 
up multimedia folders for scanning for media content and generating 
thumbnails.

Android™ : 

Connect a keyboard, mouse and HDMI display to your TAS-

168/268 to play all media files on the Android™ with apps such as Kodi™, 
Qphoto, Qvideo and Qmusic.

Remotely control Android™

Android™ : 

After shutting down Android™ from QTS, the local display will 

be turned off. You can also use the remote control to shut down Android™ .

QTS : 

You can control the amount of time your kids spend on the TAS-

168/268. With myQNAPcloud service, you can remotely connect to the QTS, 
go to Android™ Station, and then remotely turn off Android™. Moreover, 
when there’s insufficient memory for Android™, you can also restart Android™ 
in the same page to release memory. Or when Android™ becomes unstable, 
you can also restore the system by using “Reset Android™ to Factory Default 
Settings”.
