On my current iPhone SE (1st generation) running iOS 13.4 (yes it really is :)), I need to ask if this method would be the best for saving downloaded files to the Files app.

1. Installed Keynote
2. Files are downloaded from the web using Safari
2. I move or copy the files from the downloads section from Safari and save them to the following directory in the Files app > On My iPhone > Keynote > Documents (which I created my own) and then saving them there.

Will this method work? I can use a third party File manager from the app store if I wanted to like Documents 6, but I prefer not to use one.

Update: I uninstalled Keynote and downloaded various Zip files, PDFs, Word docs, and seems to be opening up.

Think I got it now the way it works even without Keynote. I will further test.

I save a number of things like this to Files.
