Question by Untitled_Tools_Projects · Aug 11, 2017 at 06:51 AM · androidandroid builddownloadandroidpluginandroid-manifest

Android Downloads Folder

I have been searching for a while now but have not found a good answer to my question, how do I access the android downloads folder in unity 3D? I believe I have all of the permissions in my manifest file, but if I don't, can someone please tell me link text I need to find the mp3 files that the user has downloaded, but if I can't access the downloads folder, I don't think I can get them. (Please tell me if there is another way).

I found the answer to my own question. I had to switch the "Internal Only" to "External (SD Card)" in the player settings for the "Write Permission" drop-down.

Would you be kind enough to share your implementation? I am trying to access the donwloads folder. Actully I have few images and videos in the downloads folder and I need to access them when my unity scene starts. I have no idea how to do it in unity?

Put AndroidManifest.xml in your /Assets/Plugins/Android folder with these extra permissions:

That worked for me.
