Description

Thinking out of the box, would it be possible to display an "Add to ARK Root" option when a user is navigating through a folder structure outside the ARK app.
For example, let's say I am in the My FIles app in my Android phone, and I want to add my "Vacation_Pics" folder as an ARK root. So instead of opening ARK and finding the folder, I press the Share button within the My Files app and select "Add to ARK Root"

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by tracing how Navigator handles Android share targets and how folders are added as roots; then test sharing a folder from the My Files app and confirm that an “Add to ARK Root” action creates the expected root.
