Describe the idea (required)

I need an export function to use data created with Osmand in other applications. So far, I've been able to copy the
photos I've taken from the /Android/data/net.osmand folder without any problems so that I can use them geocoded in other software.
With the penultimate update of the Android 14 operating system, this is no longer possible.

Tell us about the expected behaviour (required)

The self-created data (photos, videos, audio and tracks) should be able to be exported in their original format, for example as a .zip or .7z file

Tell us about alternatives you've considered (required)

Google no longer allows access to the /Android/data/ folder. Trying to move the data folder in OSMand doesn't work, I have no way of exporting the photos. The only thing that is still possible is to view a single photo with an image viewer and then save this photo in another folder. This is very tedious (especially with a large number of photos) and frustrating.

Context (optional)

My Phone:

Sony XQ-CQ54

operating system: Android 14

build: 64.2A.2.134

Osmand+: 4.7.9

As a workaround, you can try to use ../media directory. It should be available.
And please note, that OsmAnd .osf file (see https://osmand.net/docs/technical/osmand-file-formats/osmand-osf/) is a sort of .zip container for other files (.gpx tracks, maps and etc)

../media does not work. But I managed to move the complete net.osmand-plus folder to ../obb. I can now access it with the Android file manager.

(see https://osmand.net/docs/technical/osmand-file-formats/osmand-osf/)

Unfortunately, there is nothing sensible on the subject in the link.
But I have now found out by trial and error that you can rename .osf to .zip and then unzip it. However, I wonder why it has to be so complicated.

Thanks PPilotPirx
