Where is the exported game's storage path located on Android?

Hi, the wiki explains the location/path of the game’s storage on Windows and Linux, but it doesn’t explain the location of the game’s storage on Android/mobile. Does anyone know where it is exactly?

On android you would need rooted device to access it if i remember correctly

So work around it is to save to text

Save game with Filesystem in Gdevelop

Export and Import Save

Yes. There are many ways but that’s the easiest: Store all necessary data in one structure variable, for example progress. Use extension UploadDownloadTextFile. Use download action with content ToJSON(progress). Use upload action and save content in local variable, for example temp. Use convert JSON to global variable action with expression VariableString(temp).

Oh

So, what if the players want to delete the saved file? Should I just use the “delete storage” action and implement a “delete button” in-game?

Exactly

And there are 2 actions (add action in search bar type storage)

One will be clear storage
Other delete element

Where element is allowing you to delete some group

So if you have save made in storage called MyStorage
And you save to two groups for example SettingsGroup and ProgressGroup

Where in one you save ui crap and in other player progress

You can with it just wipe out for example game progress while keeping game settings

If you go for clear storage you will wipe out both at the same time or more likely ANY group from specific storage

I see. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation! I’ll see what I can do.
