Greetings I am trying to make this plugin work in my app but it does nothing I have dis ejected the script I used, I have done nothing but copy paste modifying only uri and folder:

` var dl = new download();

dl.Initialize({
    fileSystem: cordova.file.dataDirectory,
    folder: "Download",
    unzip: true,
    remove: true,
    timeout: 0,
    success: DownloaderSuccess,
    error: DownloaderError,
    headers: [{
        Key: 'Authorization',
        Value: 'Basic ' + btoa(token)
    }]
});

dl.Get("https://www.radiomatese.it/Download/RadioMatese.apk");

function DownloaderError(err) {
    console.log("download error: " + err);
    alert("download error: " + err);
}

function DownloaderSuccess() {
    navigator.app.exitApp();
}

It does absolutely nothing

As the README says, this plugin isn't being maintained anymore. Just for reference.

Assuming it's possible for it to work with the version of Cordova you are using I'd check:

The Download folder exists in cordova.file.dataDirectory
Set unzip and remove to false (otherwise it will try and download, unzip and then delete the apk - probably not what you want in this case
Remove the headers
When testing it monitor it with chrome dev tools or adb so you can see any errors that the plugin or cordova throws
