Wanted to add the folder that our series guide backs up its data from the auto backup and ended up having to post that question on the forum as I couldn’t find it on my tablet.

Oh, I just realized you are talking about auto backup. This path is only accessible to SeriesGuide. If you are familiar with how the Android file system is set up, it’s in the app data directory in the files subdirectory.

If you want an accessible copy, use the copy option in auto backup settings and store them somewhere known to you.
