Save backup-path for next backup
#1
When I click backup, a popup is shown.
   
To continue, one must click the folder-icon, select e.g. 'local'. Here now, the folder one has choosen earlier appears.
you click 'save' and one returns to the former popup, now with the choosen path shown.
Would be easier, if by default this path allready is given in the above popup when it opens for the first time.

For local file paths, I could certainly consider pre-populating the backup path by using the last selected folder in combination with the default filename that would normally be assigned. This doesn't really work as well for cloud paths, as MobileSheets may have to authenticate with the cloud service, which normally happens when the user goes to pick the destination. This also doesn't work when using the System File Browser, as permission to create the file is only granted by Google's file picker. Lastly, MobileSheets doesn't track which destination the user last picked (local vs cloud), so it wouldn't know which default path to go with, so I'd have to default to a local path. For cloud backups, users would still always have to pick the destination.

I should mention that this is only a possibility on Android. For iOS and Windows, permission to create the file is granted through the file picker.

Thank you, that would be fine!
