Usually, you will want to save it in the private directory for your app. You can get a pointer to that directory by invoking the getFilesDir method from an Activity or other kind of contexts. Other useful method is openFileOutput which returns a FileOutputStream that you can use to save a file. This should answer your question how "where to save" the file.

The documentation on Data Storage is good, this should give you an idea of which method best suits your needs.
