Alexander Stolte Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jun 18, 2020 #1 Hey, i found on stackoverflow this thread: Android: Getting a file URI from a content URI? In my app the user is to select an audio file which the app then handles. The problem is that in order for the app to do what I want it to do with the audio files, I need the URI to be in file form... stackoverflow.com The first answer is, to use the ContentResolver.openinputstream: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/ContentResolver.html#openInputStream(android.net.Uri) Why is this missing in B4A?
