Hi Luis Sorry for the belated reply.
I'm glad you found a workable solution and shared it. Another possibly should you reconsider: https://github.com/pmario/file-backups pmario's file-backups extension works for me on Android 7.1.1 with a standalone TiddlyWiki html file running FireFox. The key is to place the file a directory in the Downloads directory. My example path is file:///storage/emulated/0/Download/myWikis/wiki.html Serial backups are made on save, I unset autosave to save hardware sd card wear and tear. The file can also be synced with apps like AutoSync https://metactrl.com/ Unfortunately, like you, I found my handheld performance lacking in usability and use termux with VimWiki as a primary capture tool. TiddlyWiki still works and used for 1 off notes when I use Firefox Best, tony On Tuesday, July 10, 2018 at 11:57:22 PM UTC-7, Luís de Sousa wrote: > > Hi TonyM, > > thank you for your message.
