Depending on your settings, you'll have the option to save to On My iPhone , iCloud Drive , and possibly other cloud drives.
If you downloaded a file this way, you'll find it in the Files app. If you're looking for a photo you saved from the web, an app, or a message, you'll probably find it in the Photos app, not the Files app.
