Saved photo directory (lemm.ee)

Is there a way to specify where photos are saved? I don't see an option in the settings menu and it seems to be defaulted to (Android) Internal/Pictures/

I believe this is how Android works. In order to specify any folder, an app needs extra permissions. If an app uses the Internal/Pictures folder then it doesn't need any permissions.

Ah, that makes sense. Since the app isn't asking for anything extra, there wouldn't be a way to specify a different folder then, right?

That's my understanding!
