On syncing, backups and mirroring #95

Hi,

Has anyone figured out how to synchronize NeutriNote writings in latest Androids, where apps cannot access other apps' folders in Android/data/...?

I know there is mirroring functionality in NeutriNote, but it seems to work one-way. I've just tried making the mirror folder Downloads/MegaSync/, but the list of writings in NeutriNote interface still only contains Getting started.txt.

Wouldn't it be better to allow the app to make some other folder its main working place, other than the one in Android/data/com.appmindlab/files/?

Plus, there is one tick for both mirroring and backups, whereas backups may not be needed. The cloud service Mega, for example, has its own backup functionality.

Mirroring is 2-way. Please see if it is properly located under the backup folder.

No. of backup copies can be controlled via this string.

HTH.
