On Android it’s in the root folder. So basically if you just open any file explorer app, it should be on the first screen. The equivalent to the “C” drive or “My Computer” on Windows.
Ever since like android 11 nothing saves in my download folder anymore on the SD card I have inserted.
Everything gets saved deep in the android subdirectory, and then somewhere in a folder named loosely after the app that downloaded it, where the app has made ANOTHER folder to put the file.
And then you can’t even move it with a third party folder app. It’s gotten so annoying lately I’d swear they just want to kill the SD card from android completely.
On my Android 13 device browsers save in sd card/Android/data/com.my.browser. This folder can only be accessed on the default, hidden file manager or on a PC. Not even read-only access, but straight up nothing. At this point I just don’t bother directly downloading to my sd card anymore, I just download to internal storage and move it all to sd card/Downloads every so often
Have you checked your “Downloads”-folder?
I’m just checking this meme instead
where exactly is the downloads folder?
/storage/emulated/0/Download
that’s what total commander told me
For Android, I can recommend CX Filebrowser
I haven’t tried that one but FX filebrowser is awesome
So convenient .
Well
/storage/emulated/0/seems to be sort of like a home folder, so it is quite convenientIt’s the kind of /home you have when you don’t want people to stumble upon it… The kind of place you archive your “homework” in.
Not my gentleman’s special interest literature!
Who is this commander and why is he is fucking around with my downloads?
We conveniently place that stuff in /home/$USER in Unix-likes. Even have standards to re-define Downloads & co. path.
Guess Google wanted the share-to-app and share-to-cloud like Apple, but rven there users sometimes like s file manager.
Total Commander is a godsend. I don’t know how people use Windows or Android without it.
Who the fuck knows.
Like the fictional village of Germelshausen, it only appears for a single day every 100 years.
In your phone. Just like how your computer has things in the C drive.
The files are in the computer?
I just run Files and the Downloads folder is listed there under Categories.
