Try background_downloader and see if it meets your needs.

I also have this problem， the download task has been in the queue

device : pixel 4a, android 13

Flutter version 3.7.10 on channel stable

[mohabbatta]

i have the same problem
android 12

[Alvish0407]

I thought same way for android and iOS both but after 2 days of hard-work I found out that my implementation was somewhat wrong. If you provide me with your implemented code, I'll do my best to assist you in resolving any issues you may be facing.

[ucola]

any progress? I try it on android 13 with pixel7a also not working... we always have the problem that hasStoragePermission is set to false

I have uploaded one app on play store having targetSdkVersion set to 32 though.

What error are using facing on console ? can you share ?

[adham-ashraf77]

I think it will be problem in the neat future so I'm looking for a solution for download on api 33

@781flyingdutchman has mentioned background_downloader above.

I haven't tried but maybe it might be what you are looking for. Let us know if you implement and make it work for 33.

[781flyingdutchman]

Staring August 31 all Android apps uploaded to the Play store must target API 33. The background_downloader package supports API 33.
