I have written a code to record audio and save it to below file location. private String getFilename() { String filepath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath(); File file = new File(filepath, AUDIO_RECORDER_FOLDER); if (!file.exists()) { file.mkdirs(); } return (file.getAbsolutePath() + "/" + System.currentTimeMillis() + file_exts[currentFormat]); } In Logcat, it gives me a file location as /storage/emulated/0/AudioRecorder/1436854479696.mp4 I am not able to find this file location on my SD card. How to access the location? As Hiren stated, you'll need a file explorer to see
