It is possible to write to the Documents folder on your phone, but adding it to your manifest will cause your app to complete the Windows Phone Store certification process.

This feature is called documentsLibrary 



<Capability Name="documentsLibrary" />

If you declare it, you can read and write files to KnownFolders.DocumentsLibrary

.

    var file = await folder.CreateFileAsync(fileName, CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);
