I have observed that for following artifacts when downloaded using the Firefox Android App, I can't open them by clicking on the notification that appears in the status bar of my phone:

  • PDF
  • Images

For PDFs it shows an error which says "The name is too long" For Images it just open the image viewer but all I see is a black screen.

Hi

What are the files that you are trying to download and where are you trying to download them from?

They are usually PDFs. I just can't open them from the notification but I am able to open them if I open the download folder and then try to open.

Hi

Those are files that cannot be opened in Firefox for Android, but you should be able to open them if you have a .pdf viewer app installed on your Android device.
