 ----
+Due to the [[manual:faq:android_11_filesystem|recent changes in the Android file system]] the **transfer of the app data to the private folder** in /Android/data/ directory will launch after the app update. When only a single app is installed on the device (the other Locus is not installed), the data transfer is simple:
   * one app (Locus Map 4.4.x or Locus Map Pro 3.55.x) is installed
-  * download and install Locus Map 4.5 or Locus Map Pro 3.56
+  * download and install the update (Locus Map 4.5 or Locus Map Pro 3.56)
   * during the app initialization, you are notified of the app directory /Locus/ stored in the unsupported part of the internal storage:\\ {{ :manual:faq:page_force_move_root_info_lma.jpg?nolink |}}
-  * by accepting it, Locus **smoothly transfers all the original data into its private folder**
+  * after accepting it, you can **select the private folder** into which the data will be transferred - either in the **internal storage** or on the **external SD card** (can be significantly slower)
-  * after the app restarts, all is done and working as before
+  * you can also **[[manual:faq:cusom_subdirs|merge data from your custom-defined subdirectories]]**:\\ {{ :manual:faq:page_move_root_dir_with_custom.jpg?nolink |}}
+  * Locus **smoothly transfers all the original data into its private folder**
+  * the **process may take a few minutes** depending on the size of your data
+  * after the **app restarts**, all is done and working as before
 === What if I refuse? ===
   * you can go on using the app as before
   * but you are notified of the app data transfer at **each next start of the app**
-  * you can **move the original data any time** also from the app **main menu**:\\ {{ :manual:faq:app_transfer.jpg?nolink |}}\\ or from //settings > miscellaneous > default directory//
