getNoBackupFilesDir

@Nullable
open fun getNoBackupFilesDir(@NonNull context: Context): File(source)

Returns the absolute path to the directory on the filesystem similar to getFilesDir. The difference is that files placed under this directory will be excluded from automatic backup to remote storage on devices running LOLLIPOP or later.

No permissions are required to read or write to the returned path, since this path is internal storage.

Return

The path of the directory holding application files that will not be automatically backed up to remote storage.
