Hello,
These are the private folders of your application. As far as I know,
QStandardPaths was changed to return them instead of public locations
under Android.
You should use Android APIs to get paths to public locations instead.

Hi,
I’m having an hard time figuring out how to write files from a Qt
Android app, to a location that is public to the user, outside of the
scoped storage.
I’m currently using Qt 5.15.9 and targeting API 29 (Android 10). I
have set in my manifest requestLegacyExternalStorage=true
And then I have tried to write a dummy file to the following
StandardLocations:
DesktopLocation - "/data/user/0/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/test_file.txt"
DocumentsLocation - "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/Documents/test_file.txt"
MusicLocation - "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/Music/test_file.txt"
PicturesLocation - "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/Pictures/test_file.txt"
HomeLocation - "/data/user/0/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/test_file.txt"
GenericDataLocation - "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/test_file.txt"
DownloadLocation - "/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/files/Download/test_file.txt"
GenericCacheLocation - "/data/user/0/com.acme.org
<http://com.acme.org>/cache/test_file.txt”
Then, with the files app I try to find any of the files without
success… :(
How do we write to public files to public locations, outside the
scoped storage? Is it currently possible?
Thanks in advance!
Nuno
