Android: Set Custom TeraBox Download Location

Android gives you the most flexibility for changing download paths in TeraBox App:

  • Update TeraBox via Google Play Store to the latest version.
  • Open the app and go to Menu (profile icon) > Settings > Downloads or Transfer.
  • When downloading any file, tap the three-dot menu next to the download button.
  • Choose Save to… and select your preferred folder—SD card (/sdcard1/), internal storage, or create a new “TeraBoxDownloads” folder.
  • For permanent system-wide change:
  • Open your phone’s File Manager (Google Files, My Files, etc.).
  • Navigate to Settings > Storage > Download Location.
  • Pick SD card or custom directory and confirm.

iOS: Route TeraBox Downloads to Custom Folders

TeraBox for iOS restrictions make this slightly different, but still simple:

  • Install/update TeraBox from the App Store.
  • Open TeraBox > Settings > Automatic Backup > Enable Save to Files.
  • Open the iOS Files app (blue folder icon).
  • In TeraBox, tap Download on any file > Select Save to Files.
  • Choose your destination: iCloud Drive > TeraBox (create subfolder if needed) or On My iPhone > Downloads.
  • Browser method (Safari/Chrome): Go to iPhone Settings > Safari > Downloads > Ask where to save each file.

Your files now organize neatly in the Files app instead of scattering everywhere.

PC: Change TeraBox Download Folder (Windows/Mac)

TeraBox PC users have browser or app-level control:

Browser Method:

  1. Log into terabox.com.
  2. Chrome/Edge: Settings > Downloads > Change > Browse to D:\TeraBoxFiles, external USB, or any folder.
  3. Firefox: Settings > General > Always ask you where to save files.
  4. Safari (Mac): Preferences > General > File download location > Other > Select custom folder.

TeraBox Desktop App:

  1. Download the official PC app from terabox.com.
  2. Open app > Settings > Download Path > Browse and choose your folder.
  3. Hit Apply—all future downloads follow this path.

Right-click any download and select Show in Folder to confirm.

FAQs

Can I save TeraBox downloads directly to SD card?

Yes, on Android only. Use File Manager to set /sdcard1/ as the download location. iOS doesn’t support SD cards.

Why don’t my downloads appear in the new folder?

Check for hidden files in File Manager, or clear TeraBox cache: Settings > Apps > TeraBox > Storage > Clear Cache. Restart the app.

Will changing the path affect my cloud files?

No—only local downloads change. Your TeraBox cloud storage remains untouched.

Downloads keep reverting to default path?

Set the location in both TeraBox settings and your device/browser settings. Some launchers override paths.

Conclusion

Changing your TeraBox download path takes just minutes and saves hours of manual file moving. Whether you’re routing to an SD card to free internal space or organizing PC downloads into dedicated folders, these steps give you full control.

Pro Tip: Always download from the official TeraBox app or website to avoid malware risks from third-party sources. Keep your app updated for the latest features and security.
