I’m really confused with the files dowloaded from the Web.
There is no notification helping me to locate them
Even after an extensive seach on the Files applications in the various storage folders, I can’t find them.
Is there a way to set where these files must download ?
My device is a Samsung Galaxy S7.
Very critical issue in France now we have to download governmental waiver to move under Covid-19 control.
In fact, I face this issue anytime, in any application where I can
download something.
Looks like that the download is completed but no way to show it. So I
switch to my laptop.
Recently, I have the issue with the French application
When downloaded on your smartphone it creates a QR code that you can
show the police in case of check.
You have to issue this QR everytime you want to quit home !!!
the covid 19 app will not work with eOS til next microG update as written in tons of posts here in forum.
Your download issue I can’t imagine. As written before normally all downloads are located in Downloads folder. Only some apps will have his own download folder like some Browsers, or seafile client. But the download location you will find than in the settings of the app.
Indeed I searched this Downloads folder on the same Browser. Mine is empty.
Unfortunately Browser doesn’t work anymore : ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED !!!
Also a clarication : we have in France 2 official applications for Covid :
The first one is a tracking tool (based on Bluetooth) : I use it, fine
(no downloads requested once installed).
The second one is a “police” application to allow you to walk, ride or
drive outdoor under lockdown : that one issues a new personal QR code
you have to download on the smartphone (every day). This is why I’m in
trouble.
If you want to use the generator provided by the French government (it’s not an obligation) instead of print it and fill it by hand :
You should find every downloaded files in “Fichiers”. Click on the 3dots on the top right, then on “Afficher le stockage interne”. Now click on the hamburger button on the top left to show the menu, click on “SM-G930F” and click on the “Download” folder to show every downloaded files.
This generator isn’t an application, so use the word “website” instead in order not to confuse people (otherwise they will think you are talking about TousAntiCovid)
By the way, TousAntiCovid works on /e/OS because it doesn’t use the Google Exposure API.
Indeed you don’t even have to go into the 3 dots. Just open “Fichiers”, the menu will automatically be displayed, click on “SM-G930F” to be able to browse your external storage (external storage here doesn’t mean microSD card). Now you just have to click on “Téléchargements” (or “Download”).
You can’t re-install it because you can’t delete it (under normal condition), but you could reset Browser :
Paramètres > Applications > Browser > Stockage > EFFACER LES DONNÉES > OK.
For your information, please follow the steps I indicated in my previous post because yes in the menu there is a shortcut towards “Téléchargements” but sometimes some files can appear in SM-G930F > Download and not in “Téléchargements” (yes it doesn’t make any sense but that’s what can happen).
And inversely, you can try open Fichiers and go directly to “Téléchargements” if you never tried.
If you see nothing, change the download folder in the Browser settings as stated by Harvey.
Hello,
Peut-être a-t-on le droit de parler français ici puisqu’on évoque un “website” spécifiquement français ?
Il s’agit du fameux générateur d’autorisations de sorties dont le site web est
" https://media.interieur.gouv.fr/deplacement-covid-19/ "
Sur mon /e/phone (un Samsung S 7), ça fonctionne très bien.
J’ai placé ce site dans les favoris de mon navigateur /e/ pour pouvoir l’afficher rapidement en cas de besoin.
Ensuite je remplis toutes les cases (sans en oublier aucune, sinon, ça ne fonctionne pas) et je déroule l’écran jusqu’au bouton “générer mon attestation”
J’appuie sur le bouton et un pop-up me signale que l’attestation est téléchargée.
Je la retrouve effectivement dans l’appli “fichiers” de mon /e/phone.
Mais elle n’est pas visible dans le 1er écran qui s’affiche.
Comme l’a dit un autre intervenant, il faut pointer le “hamburger” en haut à droite (les 3 barres noires horizontales). Dans la liste d’emplacements proposés, on trouve “téléchargements” et l’attestation s’y trouve sous la forme d’un fichier pdf avec un QR code
Ma méfiance initiale envers ce genre d’application a été “démontée” par le fait qu’il s’agit d’une “application” (pardon d’un website) open-source.
J’espère que les plus affutés d’entre nous ont été voir ce qu’il y a “sous le capot” !
