- voltagex_ 14y agoIs there a preferred standard for using the SD/external storage on Android?

It's trivially easy to get the proper location. Just call getExternalFilesDir() . Deletion at uninstall happens automatically. In fact, it's the ONLY way to make sure those files are deleted when you uninstall, because you can't run code at uninstallation.
