Using media folder in android 11 and up

Question

I want to read and write in downloads folder in android 11 and up

Answer 1

As of Android 10 and higher, accessing external storage directories like the 'Downloads Folder', that you mentioned; has been restricted due to privacy and security reasons. Instead of directly accessing the Downloads Folder, Android encourages developers to use the Storage Access Framework (SAF) for accessing shared files. You can use it. Here is their documentation⤵️
