About Save Locally

Have you ever ran into this scenario: you are using an app (such as a bank app) and you need to export a file urgently (for example, a bank statement in PDF). You want to download that file locally in your device, but the app doesn't offer any easy way to do so, the max it offers is the option to share the file, meaning you end up having to send it to yourself (or somebody else) via email or a instant messaging app, to only then having the option to save that file. This happens because many apps choose to use the system's share functionality instead of doing the work to implement the required file saving logic. So, what can be done?

Privacy and F-Droid
