@Topiya did the suggestions in that issue resolve your issue?

[Topiya]

@shnist No, It didn't solve my issue. Is there any other workaround for this issue?

@Topiya can you provide a code snippet from your project? This will help diagnose the issue. One thing you can try, if you haven't done so already, is to try and provide the relevant MIME type (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Complete_list_of_MIME_types). So for example, an .epub file would look something like:

cordova.plugins.fileOpener2.open('file.epub',  'application/epub+zip', {  error : function(){ },   success : function(){ } });

Anyone able to find a solution for this. I have same issue.
cordova.plugins.fileOpener2.open(
dirEntry.nativeURL + fileName,
mimetype,
{
error: (e) => {
console.log(Error status: ${e.status} - Error message: ${e.message});
},
success: () => {
})

Iam getting "Error status: 9 - Error message: Could not handle UTI

Any idea what can cause this error and how to solve it?

My MIME type is application/pdf.
Surprisingly only 1 user out of many is experiencing this issue on iPhone 7 Plus.

Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce it on other devices or in the simulator.
