I guess not, because you were not developing your own extension

this is because another app, which has been started using the activity starter will not be able to read files from the assets of your app

I saw many users asking questions related to Pdf.
So in this guide I am going to tell you that how you can open pdf in your app without any extension.
First of all thanks to @Taifun for guide on his website.
https://puravidaapps.com/snippets.php#2pdf
First you need some components.
Textbox
Button
Webviewer
Activity Starter
Web (to decode uri)
How it looks from designer
[01-14_29_52]
Blocks
1.Open PDF from given path
[blocks%20(8)]
2.Pick PDF and open it
[blocks%20(9)]
[blocks%20…

and you find the answer why it is not working also in that thread…
thank you for getting some inspirations from my work
How to view a pdf document
your example will work only on your development device, because the activity starter is not able to access files from the assets of your app
therefore you first have to copy them to the internal sdcard and access them from there

do you use a custom package name?
I am getting the same problem. Activity Starter doesn’t works to open a file with custom package name. This problem is in just kodular. Hope they will fix this issue as soon as possible
