Revision history [back]

Today I wanted to download a big ogg opus file in the stock browser. When I clicked on it, the browser tried to play the file but failed (This may be another bug), but it did not offer a possibility to download the file instead. I tried another approach, pressed on the link and hold my finger down for some time and got the selection to:

• Open the link in a new tab (this would then start playback, this time working)
• Share
• Copy the link to the clipboard

(all three options translated from German)

I saw no way to force the browser to download the file. Is there no possibility to do so, or did I miss something? If you want to reproduce that case, the file I tried to download is located on this site: http://www.alternativlos.org/30/ (the "als ogg opus"-Link).
