How to upload files(any format) from any folder other than current folder in app designed by matlab app designer

In matlab app, when I upload files using 'uigetfile' it only allows to upload files from current folder i.e. folder where app.mlap file is saved. How can I upload multiple files from other folder too?

Use absolute/relative filenames:

You will need to use fullfile:

From my understanding you want to uplode files from other than the current folder. Here is a code which might help you.

[stmfile, stmpath] = uigetfile('*.txt', 'pick text file');
% example : [FileName,PathName] = uigetfile('C:\*.wav','All Wave Files (*.wav)');
A = importdata(fullfile(stmpath, stmfile), '\t', 15);

For more information refer examples in uigetfile.
