This does not work

Hey,
Thanks for testing. Can you please let me know which part is not working? whatsapp file sharing or local downloads file sharing ?

@nieldeokar The whatsapp part is not working. The file.canRead method gives false and hence the path returned is null. Do we have to add any permissions in manifest for the above code to work?

I will update you on this after testing it once again. Thanks!

Actually in my app I am using FileUtils class for detecting incoming file Uri's from other apps. In which files coming from whatsapp were failing to resolve into their actual Uri. Anyone using FileUtils for same purpose would get benefited from it so I made the pull request.

But since FileChooserExample doesn't allow us to browse files from whatsapp it doesn't make any sense here. If you still want to test this feature you can add this intent-filter to FileChooserExampleActivity and check if you are able to resolve the Uri of whatsapp files.

<intent-filter>
              <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND_MULTIPLE" />
              <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
              <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
              <data android:mimeType="image/*" />
</intent-filter>

@nieldeokar its already included but it still does not work
