File Explorer in Android Studio

Android Studio 3 Canary 1 has a new Device File Explorer

View -> Tool Windows -> Device File Explorer

So much better than DDMS and is the new improved way to get files off of your device!

Allows you to 'Open', 'Save As', 'Delete', 'Synchronize' and 'Copy Path'. Pretty awesome stuff!

it has changed and its docked to the right bottom of your android studio by default.

if you dont have that you can open it through view -> tool windows -> device file explorer

You can start Android Device Monitor from the Android Studio (green robot icon on the toolbar, to the left of the help icon). From the ADM, select the device/emulator, then select the File Explorer tab.

Then the Android Device Monitor window will pop up. Click on the emulator & File Explorer.

Shared Preference files should be in:

DDMS-> File Explorer ->data -> data -> MY_PACKAGE_NAME -> shared_prefs -> YOUR_PREFERENCE_NAME.xml
