React native download remote file

It worked well. Just have one question, it requires relevant software to be installed on the mobile. Like if i need to view PDF, then it should have a pdf viewer installed.

Munish above my solution for all the types of files.

Thanks for helping me out. Much appreciated your help. I tried both the solution given by you and Hamas. Both are correct solution, as he has given me the solution first so technically I am marking his solution.

I wish one can mark both answer correct so would have marked your answer as well.. We can preview URL files like this using these two libraries. Hamas Hassan Hamas Hassan 3 3 silver badges 13 13 bronze badges.

Is there a way to attach a header?? EnriqueDev I don't think so, but you can work around this - just put your token into a GET parameter, and adjust your server to handle it this way — Fancy John. Yes, I know. But then how can I save the result data into the phone filesystem?
