Comment (by antoniou79):
I am not sure I quite understand the issue.
Can you clarify a few things for us?
- Which version of ScummVM Android are you running?
- What is, step by step, the use case you are attempting?
ScummVM Android supports Cloud saves, as long as you set a Cloud storage
from the Global Options, and also has the LAN server feature so you can
backup your saves quickly to another device on your local network.
But if you save to an external physical storage (SD card or USB), you
should be able to access these saved games on another device, or the same
device (after a ScummVM reinstall or, say, a factory reset) as long as you
set up again the SAF access as needed by Android for external storage.
Backing up your config file (so you can "save" your added games list) is a
bit trickier and not automated. One reason for this is that the Android
config file is not supposed to be portable and could not be compatible
even with other Android devices due to how the file system and paths work
on this OS.
