Well, in his defense, I could save a file from 8 different applications and they end up in 8 different locations on my phone file system. You would think they would all go to Documents or Downloads...nope. apps dont let you pick locations, and if they do, you don't get to pick anywhere you want

This sounds highly like an Apple FS issue.
Don't experience it nearly as much on my Android (Pixel 7).

Still salty about the google file explorer.

Apple has a default share option of “Save to Files” where you can navigate where you want it saved. The default location is definitely application specific though.
