SUMMARY
When we configure KDE Connect and the the Share and Receive plugin, we can use the %1 at the destination path, with %1 being the source's device name. 
However, if the path doesn't exists, the plugin isn't creating it, without any warning or indication that the path should exist. 

What would be ideal is the KDE Connect to check if the destination directory exists and if not to either create it, or request user's permission to create it. In case the destination folder doesn't exists (eg ~/Downloads/MyPhone), you see the "receiving" files pop up without any notification that the files are actually not saved. 

Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0
Qt Version: 6.7.3
