Storage and Android 16 SAF¶
NRSuite uses Android's Storage Access Framework (SAF) instead of broad storage permissions.
Granting access¶
- Open Settings → Storage access → Grant storage access.
- Select a writable folder using the system folder picker.
- NRSuite creates and uses these subdirectories:
What the directory is used for¶
The selected root is used for:
- PCAP captures
- log exports
- portal HTML templates
- DuckyScript files
- credential and history exports
- IR imports and learned buttons
- other user-managed files
If access is lost¶
Android may revoke a persisted folder grant after a restore, provider change, or permission reset. NRSuite detects the invalid folder and prompts you to grant access again.
If downloads, imports, or exports fail:
- Re-open storage settings.
- Re-select the NRSuite root folder.
- Verify the folder is writable.
- Retry the operation.
The app does not request a broad storage permission, and Auto Backup is disabled. Back up important files independently.
