Download pdf from Confluence page on smartphone

Question

Hi

For our business we need to share pages in Confluence where we have pdf files.

However from smartphones it seems that no one can download the pdf files.

We can click on the icon of the pdf file but it does not download.

Is there a solution to that ? That is a problem for us. We all need to have access to those pdf files from smartphones.

Best regards

Vincent

I'm sorry but the problem is still here. Is there a fix that could be possible?

A colleague suggested to turn on "PC version" in the browser, and then it worked and I could download the files.

However it would be nice if this could work straight from the mobile view of the browser. Because our teachers on the field are not "techy".

Maybe some JS event is missing in the mobile view ?

I tried again and I cannot download any pdf file from the public page. Clicking on the file icon does nothing.
