How do I copy application files from an older Android phone to a newer one?
00:22 09 Nov 2025

I've upgraded my Android phone. On my old phone I have many apps that I created with Android Studio. I'm making any necessary changes to my apps and installing them on the new phone. My apps have created, and use application (.txt) files. I need to copy those application files, which are simply located in "Internal Storage" on my old phone to my new phone. But, on my new phone my apps seem only able to create and access files in "/data/user/0/myApp/files". That location isn't accessible using the File Explorer on either my phone or my Windows computer. How can I copy the files to that location?
