Download Manager

Manage native background file downloads and PDF exports. Nativine embeds native iOS URLSessionDownloadTask and Android DownloadManager bridges, replacing webview download failures with native background downloading, progress notification bars, and instant previewing.

1. Overview & Native Capabilities

Downloading PDFs, invoices, zip archives, or media files inside webviews often fails or displays raw binary code. Nativine's Download Manager plugin intercepts file download requests at the OS layer:

• Background Download Engine: Downloads large files (PDFs, ZIPs, MP4s, CSVs) in the background with auto-retry on network disconnects.
• Native Progress Notifications: Display real-time download progress percentages in the OS notification shade.
• Open In / Share Sheet Integration: Prompt the native OS QuickLook / Share sheet ("Open in Files", "Save to Device", "Share via WhatsApp") on download completion.
