About to switch phones and smartwatch. Where do I find downloaded watchmaker app files son i may copy and paste to next phone.

Been there, done that. On the sd in beautifulwatches. Just copy the whole folder to the new phone.
Or post to Dropbox or Google

I can't seem to find an app to do exactly what I'm looking for. I want folders to back up to my NAS over my wifi network, but to remember what's been copied and only send new files regardless of whether they're still in the destination folder or not.
I'm currently using the sync option of AndFTP but it copies everything.
Here's my use case: I copy all my photos over to a 'Phone Pics' folder on my NAS, I then sort them into folders by date or place and delete anything I don't want to keep. But the problem is that the next time I sync, any I move or delete get copied over again!
So, I have to keep a folder of everything and copy them to other folders if I want them to be sorted or part of a different photoset. Which is annoying and harder to keep track of.
Ideally, the app would remember the date of the last sync and only copy new or changed files since then.
Any ideas?

Ah, no still doesn't work unless I haven't set it up right.
It copies files across ok, but if I move them out of the destination folder they're copied straight back on next sync. What I need, I guess, is not a sync setup but a 'copy new files only'
in slim file manager or rom toolbox, if i copy a folder to a location that already has a folder with that same name, both apps will just append a number to the end of the copied folder. ex: if i copy folder "New" to a location that already has a folder called "New", then it'll copy the new folder over but will rename it as "New-2".
instead, i would like it to just merge the files from the old location to the new location and/or overwrite the old files instead of created another folder. i know i can do this just within windows, but windows is slow and it's faster to transfer stuff around on the sdcard from the phone itself.
Es file explorer.... Allows me to merge folders. Copy/cut, paste.
As for the items in the folders, it will overwrite if they have the same name.

I really like the app Solid Explorer (Play Store link). It has a great interface and has the functionality you requested. It is a paid app, but extremely worth its money.

Lol thanks for that. I thought es was the cats ass till I gave solid a try. They have a trial, I ended up getting the full version.
Cheers
I read... alot! And every time I download an EPub book it puts the cover art into my gallary as a new folder. I have over 200 in there now! Is there a way to put them into a separate folder and keep the main gallary folder for just my photos - still have them work as far as displaying the art and download to the new folder?? Or perhaps have my photos go to a specific folder?

Create a .nomedia file in your ebook folder and it will skip that folder for scans.
I had to do that for quite a few locations to skip them.

I appreciate it but how would I go about doing that? Not a complete newb, just a partial one.
I use an app called es file explorer for all sort of file/folder related tasks.
I browse to the folder on my internal or external card and hit new to create file in that folder and name that file .nomedia

Tried that but it doesn't seem to be working. I"m searching the device for other places to do this with and see if that works.
That worked! Thanks alot!
OK, I have searched dozens of threads and it seems they all come back to the same thing. I'm looking for someone to tell me if my deductions are correct. Movies must be stored ON the device or they will not play. There is no option to send them to the SD card.
Next, how do I delete the movie I did download? I can do it from ES file Explorer if that is the only way.
Thanks....
i guess u need to "un-pin" the movie....

Holy crap . . that must be why it downloaded in the first place. So easy. I guess I tried to make it more difficult than it is...
You can, if you have root access, cut and paste the .samsungvideohub folder onto your external from internal storage. The files will play, theres a subfolder then a numbered folder and inside the numbered folder a .pyv file eg. titanic.pyv. The .pyv files are the video files and will play on most players.
You must have root access to to see inside the hidden folder....
Sorry guys my parents bought this phone and I don't own one so I don't know how else to help them. They were wondering where the download folder was since it seems the note 4 doesn't have that specific folder in the apps directory anymore. Also the my files doesn't seem like it has an all files folder either. So how do you check and delete downloaded files?
The my files app has a section for it.
Its in the local storage section of the my files app. you can see all your files there.
Google might be able to help you also.

Also, my files app, settings, then check show hidden files.
Call me a noob, but when I copy files in the "Download" folder (My Files>Device Storage) and I open Dropbox and select to Upload "Other Files", Dropbox goes immediately to the Downloads folder which is blank. I would like to know where the heck this "Downloads" (shown in dropbox) is located. I don't think Downloads in dropbox is the same as Download in Device Storage.
