I mean that the abstraction and “security” measures have made it very difficult to get where are the files. 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)
This is the correct way to do it, use it, see if it works for you and try to understand what happened. It’s not that different from using examples or stack overflow. With time you get better, but you need to have that last critical thinking step. Otherwise you will never learn and will just copy paste hoping it works
