Feature description
add the possibility to write a custom path when saving any kind of file,
no matter whether this implements root access or not
rn I'm writing this especially for voice record save directory but this applies to all other apps that write files, on which I had to work my way around
Why do you want this feature?
on android 10 (and 11 ? I can't remember exactly)
You can't write to external sd cards where you want, only directories within app's package name folder under Android/* are well configured for normal access
you can choose any of them through the file picker though the app may not able to write to it
to fix this I am using rooted access on some apps and on some others I am able to specify a custom better configured mount which doesn't require root implementation (/mnt/media_rw) though without an option to specify the path myself I am unable to use it, just like on fossify apps.
Additional information
It was hard to know if an issue exists already around that feature, I don't know how you guys keep up with so many issues !
thank you for the hard work :)
