[Samsung Note 2/Android 4.4.2, Rooted, BusyBox Pro]

An F-Droid entry that this app does not scan/update the saved-file folder would save users from having to re-download saved pages after changing their saved-pages folder to an extSdCard location.

Here's what happened:

I used Ghost Commander to move my saved pages (5 pages) to /mnt/extSdCard/Documents/saved-pages, after using Titanium Backup to convert Saved For Offline to a system app.

After rebooting my phone, Saved For Offline could not see the previously saved/moved 'saved pages'. I also tried using the SD Scanner app on the /mnt/extSdCard/Documents/saved-pages/ folder, Saved For Offline still cannot see these saved pages.

Thanks for a very useful app.

I could definitely update the readme in this GitHub repository, and I'll add a note about this. I'm not sure how to submit an edit to F-Droid though (?), but I'll have a look.

As a note, this happens because the app keeps track of the locations of the locations actual files (using a database), and, if you move them, it does not know that you moved them or where you moved them.

There would be no easy way for the app to keep track of the actual files, so unfortunately this is something I can't really fix. But I'll update the readme in this GitHub repo, and try add some more info on the F-Droid page.

Thanks !
