# Remove File Uploads

> Disable or delete file uploads (S3 + native uploader)

## Prerequisites

* Uploads feature flagged
* Access to mobile + API code

## Steps

## Disable (quick)

1. Toggle in `apps/mobile/features/feature-registry.tsx`:
   * `fileUploads: false`
2. Remove or gate entry points:
   * `apps/mobile/app/(tabs)/features/index.tsx`

## Delete (production)

### Mobile

* Remove upload screens:
  * `apps/mobile/app/file-uploads/*`
* Remove upload helpers and native module usage:
  * `apps/mobile/lib/upload/*`
  * `apps/mobile/modules/*` (file uploader module)
* Remove upload-related SDKs from `apps/mobile/package.json` if unused.

### API

* Remove upload routers and S3 helpers:
  * `apps/api/src/routers/upload.ts`
  * `apps/api/src/lib/s3.ts`
* Remove S3 env vars:
  * `S3_BUCKET`, `S3_REGION`, `S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`

## Verify

* No upload screens are reachable
* No S3 endpoints are mounted
* No S3 env vars are required at boot

## Troubleshooting

* **Uploads still visible**: remove entry points and routes
* **S3 errors continue**: remove S3 env vars and restart
