[question] save file outside app bundle - persist file after app remove #758

Open nriccar opened 2 years ago

nriccar commented 2 years ago

Hello,

This is a simple question, not an issue.

I read the documentation and I did not find anything about this, and I tried with different file locations and the file always gets removed when the app is removed from the phone.

What I need to do is an offline backup of the app information. The intended functionality is to save this file - which Im already doing - and being able to recover it if the app is removed.

It would be great being able to share this file between different phones too.

Thanks for reading

Will do! However, do you know the answer to the question?

Should I post the same issue on that repo?

Thanks

Just since I'm reading it now. it's possible with my version by e.g. using the media provider part and storing it to the public downloads folder (Android)
