Important Update: As of version "7.43_JET_1.28" and later, you no longer need to access /Android/data (or use the Shizuku approach) to manage your app data.
New Data Location:
Your data is now stored in /Android/media/com.zinuzoid.xcsoar_jet, which can be easily accessed using any generic file manager.
Note: If you update the app (instead of doing a fresh install), your current data will remain in /Android/data/com.zinuzoid.xcsoar_jet, and the app will continue to use it.
To Switch to New Data Location:
Backup your existing data.
Uninstall the app.
Reinstall the app.
Restore your backup to /Android/media/com.zinuzoid.xcsoar_jet.
========================================
For original XCSoar fan; you might wondering where is the original XCSoar app is. The answer is it's gone forever as the previous author took down the app.
The good news is a new author is taking over XCSoar future but there's still a lot of work to start publishing the original XCSoar again. (You can follow the progress at https://github.com/XCSoar/XCSoar/issues/1370)
In the meantime, XCSoar JET is the alternative to original XCSoar. XCSoar JET strategy is a soft fork, meaning we'll always have 100% of original XCSoar development/feature plus my features tailored to my personal needs.
FAQ:
