Field Notes Pro Addon Android 12
Answered
Hi,
I switched to a Android 12 phone. I allowed field notes to access file storage.
In the past I exported the logs in the logs folder of locus. Now I tried the same:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/menion.android.locus/files/Locus/logs
but it does not work. No access rights. I am sure it has to do with the new security features of Android.
Am I right that the only solution is to use a folder outside of locus?

Hello,
as you wrote, the restriction of the new Androids doesn't allow add-on to reach the folder.
You can try to use another folder, or you can export your logs to txt via the Locus built-in logs manager.
More info https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:geocaching:tools#logs_manager.
The developer on the FieldNotes add-on doesn't communicate for some time, and doesn't reply to our inquiries.
His add-on will probably be soon discontinued by Google as it hasn't been updated for several years.
