Where are the GCM files in Android?

I was attempting to find any possible log files that GCM might have written. I could not find any files related to GCM on my phone. There must be some somewhere.

GCM writes temporary files to the standard application folder, following the Android API rules: Phone\Android\data\com.garmin.android.apps.connectmobile

Logs are following the Android recommendations too, and Logcat is used. Use Android Studio, or google "logcat viewer" if you want to look at it.

Thank you for the information. I have been unable to find com.garmin on my devices. You say they write temporary files, perhaps they remove the whole thing when they are done with it? Or perhaps I have not used a feature that requires them to write temporary files. I did find a connectIQ folder on one of my devices so maybe they only create the folders when you do certain actions. I really appreciate the information on Logcat. I have not tried to do that yet, but now I know the path to go down.
