I have an app that creates a pdf, then opens the client’s mail app and
attaches the pdf to an email. This works fine with iOS and used to work fine on
android. However I now have customers reporting problems on android. These
problems appear to be connected to where the pdf file is saved. I had been
using * specialFolderPath("external documents”) * but recently found that
gMail would no longer accept that location. I switched to *
specialFolderPath("temporary”) * which worked for gMail but seems to produce an
i/o error with Microsoft Outlook. I could present the user with a preference
setting so that the app would know in advance which path to use… but I would
like to avoid that if possible. Is there a read/write location that works with
both / all?
In the case of this app, another solution might be to just send everything
through my own mail server and simply bypass the user’s mail app. But that puts
other restrictions on the user that I’m hoping to avoid.
