I have tried but it seems it doesn't work. I was trying to open a PDF file with Adobe Reader.

Also, where is File.documentsDirectory located?

Thanks

No, it doesn't work. Unfortunately, that's not documented either.

On Android, the documentsDirectory property points to the root of the SD card (as does the userDirectory).

I wonder if there is any update on this issue? Thanks.
