An Android app I was relying on did not save its data. I'm hoping that perhaps the data is located in a cache or temporary file.

The device is not rooted (and is running Android 7.0), and I've scoured all storage accessible without root using a couple different file managers. Neither found anything of interest.

Using adb, is it possible to see more data on a non-rooted device than a file manager can inspect?

If not, is there another technique to accomplish this?


Update:

More specific details were requested, so they are presented here:

I was using the Mega Call Recorder Advanced Android app to record phone calls. At the end of a critical call, I went to copy the recording to a backup device. The call was not present in the list of recordings. Of course, that doesn't mean the call wasn't recorded by the app; it just means the final recording did not make it into its output folder (which does happen sometimes with that app). It is possible that the recording is stored in a cache or temporary file somewhere on the device.
