    The export feature is now under sharing.   Go to sharing and the menu will show export file, then will give you option to save to device.

I'm not finding the export option either... from anywhere, including 'share'! Help!

Hi rodwoman,

Try an "alternative" way. May help to you. Select and hold (for a second or two) on the file you want to export/download (not just a touch). The file will get selected; here you can select more files, if you want to do it at once. Next, select the ellipsis (three dots) at upper-right corner on the screen. One of possible choices there is "Save to device". 😉 On the next step you will take chance to select where to export the selected.

Hope this helps.
