Basically I cannot change any file name or folder name within the editor, which makes refactoring the code really hard. I can create new file and everything works fine until I want to rename a file. I am coding reactjs with termux. I use the paid version on google playstore. Please help :"<

P/S: I try looking for app permisson to see if I didn't grant right permisson for it to rename file, but in the settings it shows that acode app doesn't require any permisson

Due to termux restrictions or Android limitations, any app can't rename, copy, move folders and files of termux (except read, write, create) . Even your file manager can't do this . You will need to do this from termux terminal using commands. Maybe in future there will something to override but for now , no option to do this.

For renaming file/folder through termux

  1. navigate to your file/folder directory using cd then use mv command to rename .

For example:

~ $ mv oldname newname 

Just replace oldename and newname placeholder with your actual value
