Improve this question. Before you ask for the next app, here's a recommended reading: Where Android apps store data? I only asked because, despite it already being said elsewhere, the location given doesn't show the data for me, even though I'm on a rooted device. Use a terminal emulator app for that. Also, use to notify someone, such as Izzy. I vaguely remember ES had a setting for that it's quite a while ago I've used it last.

However, I need to be able to access these files from outside of Firefox, particularly with Tasker. My device is rooted, so I'm not sure why I cannot access these files Something basic like ES File Explorer should do the trick! Show 1 more comment. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google.
