How to access Data & OBB folder on Android 11 and above

Starting with Android 11+, access to Android/data and /Android/obb is restricted by Google. Restrictions are related to security. Sensitive information may be stored in these folders. You would need a computer to access them normally, however there is still a way to access Android/data and /Android/obb directory without a PC

Shizuku app

Download Shizuku from Play Store or other sources: Download | Shizuku

Read user manual how to start Shizuku User manual | Shizuku

Once you have started Shizuku, go to Authorized apps list.
