Description

Relevant mailing list thread

The extra file system roots are compelling enough that they should be part of the core File plugin (on Android and iOS right now – other platforms should also be able to add their own roots)

If we enable the root file system, then this should enable developers to access files created by other plugins, (see: Media-Capture,) regardless of where they stored on the device.
