hello, i am new to this community forum.

i use the ASD forlder to store images for my app but i cannot load them in Dynamic Image component. any help will be appreciated.

Updated version 4

Added properties to set notification title and description, if system download notification is being set to visible.

Added property to set Custom Download Path to set custom path other than ASD, that means now this extension is not limited to ASD only, it can download files in specified path.

Added a new function: FilesListFromAssets to get list of files from app assets directory.

Hello @The_K_Studio you know that it doesn’t work for me on large files, approximately 23mb.
Yes it works well with files up to 10mb for example.
I have all the files in Google Drive

It works without file size limitations, may be problem with your file source.

Check with other source.

I tried several and with different extensions.
DownloasToASD
DownloadHelper
fetchdownloader

The one that worked was CustomDownload from DH

The same works also for the ASD:

(But there a special path is needed for the VideoPlayer.Source.)

@The_K_Studio Can you please add a block to install or open file after download ??
Like if i am downloading an apk file i want to install that file after download…
Make sure if you add this block then it should work for sdk 34 also

I am having issue with custom download path in SDK 34 …

@The_K_Studio Please take a look on it

Read and understand the Android restrictions and use shared storage

You have to use some logic to handle the downloaded files. I have not added any block to open file as file can be of any type and each file required different methods to open it.

to install apk you may use below extension:

You can not directly create a folder in higher Android versions. As Taifun suggested use shared folders like Download folder to download the files.

@The_K_Studio thank You for Your reply and Wonderful extensions , also thanks to @JEWEL and all kodular members :heart:

I’m trying to download an image to /storage/emulated/0/Download, but the extension keeps creating a folder with the same name as the file inside the download folder and downloading the file to it. For example, if I’m trying to download a file called “abc.png”, it will download to /storage/emulated/0/Download/abc/abc.png. Any idea how to download directly to /storage/emulated/0/Download?

Here are my blocks:

try to set Custom Download Path to:

get ASD application specific directory or join get application specific directory with string .png

maybe you need to use Taifun File extension to get ASD directly

I don’t want to download to the ASD. I want to download to the Downloads.

What is the filename you have set in your blocks?

I am getting this error message.

Due to notification permission issue in companion it will not work in companion. Test in Apk.
