It's the dumbest setup possible with how android handles saved files, and even worse by all the hoops to put files or look at files from specific folders on your phone due to all the permissions crap.

But the easiest way to find where something was saved is to open up "Files" which is "Files by Google" to be exact. It will whatever file you saved or modified right there in the "recent" section at the top so you can look at whatever goofball place it was actually saved to.
