How to Share a File from the Chat after Transfer from Computer to Mobile? #147

How to Send PDF from Computer to Mobile

After starting the PlainApp I can use the Chat-Function to send not only Text. So I can send a Picture or any other File to the PC. And I can also send from PC (HTML-Page) to Phone.

But then I can't find the Documt in the FileSystem or just share it to … maybe WhatsApp/Signal/Wire/… You can save a Picture to somewhere but not a PDF It just opens and I can read it but not share it or save.

Maybe I'm stupid?!?

The file in chat should be something like WhatsApp, WeChat. The feature is still in the TODO list. If you want to share to file to Phone, you can just upload the file in Files -> Download folder as a walk around. Or you can find the Document in "Files -> PlainApp menu item".

I've to upload it to the PlainApp-HTML-Chat as Picture from PC and not as File, cause than it Open the PDF File in the (internal) PDF-Viewer, where I can't share it to other SmartPhone-Apps - just can view it. But if I upload the PDF as Picture than I can Save it to \Download\PlainApp in the MobilePhone, and the I can share it to WhatsApp, WeChatt, etc...
