How do I give a file URI on the mobile application?

[Dox-Dev]

So far, I'm loving this application! I'm just confused with something in particular, namely the local file URI for background images in the Android app.

I can get external HTTPS links to work just fine for my background image, but I'm not sure how to get the local file URI. The example says that it's in the format file:///home/user/bg.png. When I try to view my images in my gallery and file manager, I'm given different file paths with neither of them being in this file:/// format.

Are you using the desktop version? And are there any errors in the console (ctrl+shift+i)?

For android I am not sure, if this is possible atm tbh. We probably need a specific implementation for that...

I'll work on it.

@inattentive-nerd that is great to hear! Let me know if you have any questions!

@johannesjo Hey, sorry, but I don't think that I can do this. I lack the knowledge. I don't have the time, and I am not in the mood either. I might come back to this if no one else picks it up. But right now I have too much to deal with academically.

Deepest apologies.

@inattentive-nerd no worries! Thanks for trying! :)

I will come back once I know a little bit more of JS/TS. My current problem with contributing to the project is my lack of knowledge of the inner workings of the shared code base.
