    I can find files just fine on my Android phone, BUT when saving files on my iPad this meme would be true.

    I was editing a document on my iPad, saved it in a folder labeled ‘documents’, searched with the files app and the document folder wasn’t on my iPad or iCloud.

    Come to find out the app itself made a folder named documents within itself. So in order to get it on my iPad itself i had to share the file to dropbox then redownload it 🤨

      Yeah, developers can’t access those folders without some super specific permissions, so most just use the dedicated app folder.

          You should see how much developing for apple hurts when using a multiplatform ecosystem.

          In Flutter for example, there are entire documentation sections on “Apple is incredibly stupid and needs special care”
