If you're unable to open a downloaded PDF in an app, try the following steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check the Default PDF Viewer

  • Ensure you have a PDF reader installed (e.g., Adobe Acrobat Reader, Google PDF Viewer, or Microsoft Edge ).
  • If the app doesn’t open the PDF automatically, try opening it manually from the Downloads folder .

2. Grant Necessary Permissions

  • Go to Settings > Apps > [Your App] > Permissions and enable Storage/File Access to allow the app to access downloaded files.

3. Use a File Manager

  • Open a File Manager app and navigate to the Downloads folder .
  • Tap on the PDF file and select an appropriate PDF reader app.

4. Clear Cache and Restart the App

  • Go to Settings > Apps > Careers360 (or any other app) > Storage and click Clear Cache .
  • Restart the app and try opening the PDF again.

5. Try a Different App

  • If the built-in reader isn’t working, install a third-party PDF viewer like Adobe Acrobat Reader, WPS Office, or Foxit PDF Reader .

6. Re-download the PDF

  • Sometimes, the file may be corrupt or incomplete . Try downloading it again from the app.

To open a downloaded PDF in an app, you need to first download a PDF viewer app like Adobe Acrobat Reader, then locate the downloaded PDF file within the app's file manager and select it to open it; most devices will automatically prompt you to choose the preferred app when you try to open a PDF file after downloading it.

Key steps:

  • Download a PDF viewer app: Go to your app store (like Google Play Store on Android) and download a PDF viewer app like Adobe Acrobat Reader.
  • Open the app: Launch the PDF viewer app you installed.
  • Navigate to your downloaded PDF:

Most apps have a "Files" or "Documents" section where you can browse your device's storage.

Locate the downloaded PDF file in the appropriate folder (usually "Downloads").

  • Select the PDF: Tap on the PDF file to open it within the app.
