ARC Welder SDCARD access


I have an APK that looks to read and write from a specific folder within the /externalstorage/ (sdcard) on an android device. Is there a way I can direct ARC to a specific folder on my PC?

Thanks for the help;

Andy


Solution

  • You can edit the metadata file inside the .CRX file to enable a setting for enableExternalDirectory:

    "metadata": {
      # Other metadata
      "enableExternalDirectory": true
    }
    

    Enabling this option means that ARC will prompt you (or your users) for the directory to use for for the external directory, and you can pick a real directory on your system to use. You should then be able to freely read and write files in that directory.
