Downlaod file in mobile application for Android & ios.
Application Type
Mobile

HI, guys

I need a help with mobile file download for both ios & and android.

Flow:

1. I have a entity with three attributes(FileName, FileType & FileData ) and file type can be .pdf, .png, .jpg, etc...,.
2.There will a list screen with each file name with download icon.
3. when i click on icon current file has to download by using the records details from entity.

i have tried different forge components but there are not working.

What is happenings usually when you install a application it has to ask the permission which you have set for request permission, i have a requested for read & write the storage permission but its not asking now because of newer android software.

2 years back i have worked on the file download in mobile app it worked fine but now its not workings, i thing due to the android software .

Thank you.
