Images captured with Survey123 stored on Android?

Hello,

does anyone know where exactly the images captured inside the Survey123 mobile app are stored? I cant seem to find them in the file browser on my Samsung device.

Thank you in advance!

Thank you for answering. I am aware of this post, but there is no folder called "ArcGIS" on my device. Verified it also with another mobile device.
Also used SQL database editor app as in the screenshot.

Darn 😞

Sorry, I don't have any more android devices to try myself. When I did, I do remember it being set up like that post described though... but that was a while ago now.

Phone\Android\data\com.esri.survey123\files\ArcGIS\My Survey Attachments

They are there, can confirm this is the correct path on my Android device.

Though I understand Android has locked down local file access so the default and third-party apps will have limited access to content stored in the Android\data folder.

There is a file manager hidden in the Android settings app. You can create a shortcut to it by installing this third-party app. Or create the shortcut yourself

Of course be careful with interacting with local files.

Thank you! I was looking at the wrong folder. You are right, they are there.
