    Hi @Beamhawk1988 and welcome to the forum.

    Not sure in what state the saved game files are on your tablet, by saved game folder or loose files?

    The saved game files to go the following folder:
    Android/data/com.beamdog.baldursgateenhancededition/files/save/

    It should follow the same saved game naming conventions, ie into another folder that looks something like:
    000000001-Prologue Start

    If zipped up, then you would need to unpack the files.

    If you are running Android 11 on your tablet and you can't get there, this is because of the security permissions that 11 has surrounding the Android folder. To overcome, download the free version of 'X-plore File Manager' from Google Play, open it and navigate to 'Android/'. The File manager will state that it requires Read/Write access to the folder; follow the onscreen instructions to gain access. Now when you use X-Plore, you can copy into the games folder to exchange saved games between devices (you still wont have access using your built in File Manager).


    Hope that helps
    Gus
