It's not thinking in any app in particular. To give you an example: descent( boardgame app), we tried to get a backup of the campaign in progress to change the phone. But there was no easy option on the app and the phone wouldn't let me access the directory where it should be saved. (Funny thing is that it was only blocked on the phone we wanted to backup, on other phones we were able to access those files) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] illusionist@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago Ah!

Seriously though, phones are terrible for file management. Probably because every file gets thrown... Somewhere. Most into Downloads, some into Documents, and then some apps have their own esoteric space. All the file management UIs are equally terrible: made to look nice, but dysfunctional. Nothing ever prompts you where to save your shiny new file. And, to be fair, screen size doesn't help. permalink fedilink source parent
