CalTopo App SD Card Help
How do I tell the CalTopo app on my android to save map layers to my SD card instead of my local device storage?
-
<% blocks.forEach(function(block, index) { %>
-
<% if (imageHeight) { %>
<% } %>
<% if (!block.description) { %> <%= block.name %> <% } else { %> <%= block.name %> <% } %>
<% if (block.description) { %> <% } %>
<% }) %>

You should be able to move the tiles to a SD card and the app will then find and load them.
You can use a variety of 3rd party apps and your computer to accomplish this. While we recognize it's not the same as saving directly from the app, at least now we are supporting the external card use case.
The tile path should still be Android/data/com.caltopo.android/files/tiles.
It can be a little tricky as each Android device is a little different.
Thank you Rachel, I will give that a try. I was aware that I could simply move the files, but I was concerned that the app wouldn't be able to locate them. Thank you for providing the tile path, that is quite helpful.
I looked in internal storage on my phone and did not fine a directory Android/data/com.caltopo.android.... I did find such a directory in the SD card storage but it was empty (no such sub directory = "../files/tiles". Any other place Ii can look.
