Get the path of → ASD (app-specific dir) & → private data dir (internal storage)

Here is a small extension to get the ASD (path of app specific directory) which is becoming more and more important on Android 10+ and the private data dir (→ internal storage): de.bodymindpower.GetASD.aix (6.3 KB) [grafik] The reason why I now added the privateDir will soon become clear when I show you how to store any kind of files in → internal storage (and not just text files like the File component does). I think this is a milestone (at least for me): I am very happy that this is (no…

Dear, your extension is creating error while exporting Apk, the error is the same as mentioned here YAIL compiler - ApkBuilder failed - Discuss - Kodular Community

@TheLakshya

your extension is creating error while exporting Apk

The reason for that might be another extension. My extension works fine on all Android version with the APK.

So build an APK only with my extension.
Does it work? I think so.

Some Queries Regarding ASD Extension Developed By @bodymindpower

2. Share button is now not working after using this extension. May be the files located inside the phone directory or any other reason you better know that’s why its not working?. Please also tell me the solution for this issue.

3. The directory in which these files are saved is that also correct ?

4. I am getting an error after sound recording playing completed, is this error linked with your extension ?

5. Is there any way so that user can locate these recording saved files easily in there phone and play ? or any way to make all files visible in the app. ?

6. This extension you made gave no error with the Latest Kodular Version , API 30 and also compatible with Google Play Store Policies ?

No this error is because somewhere in your procedures you set properties for a switch using a button component. I can not be sure where cause I see how you create procedures but not how you use them

How to open downloaded files in android 11 & above

[Yash_Agarwal]

@bodymindpower sorry for late reply, i was gone out of city.

I am using WavSoundRecoder Extension version 1.0 for better sound recording quality ( by the way you suggested that also months ago )

Now i am using your ASD Extension to save those recording files because as per new android app guidelines u can save file by creating directory in internal storage right ?

1. Now i want to know i am using your Extension correct way ?
2. How to share these files now using Extension ?
3. Is there any way so that user can locate these recording saved files easily in there phone and play ? or any way to make all files visible in the app. ?
4. This extension you made gave no error with the Latest Kodular Version , API 30 and also compatible with Google Play Store Policies ?
5. What Permissions now needed to save and record files using your extension ?

Waiting for your answers
