Managing downloads
Files, apps, and other items you download in Browser, Gmail, Email, or in other
ways, are stored on your tablet’s internal storage. You can use the Downloads app
to view, reopen, or delete what you’ve downloaded.
Some mobile networks place restrictions on the size of the files you can download,
to manage the demands on their networks or to help you avoid unexpected charges.
When you try to download an oversized-file when connected to such networks,
you’re asked or required to delay downloading the file, until you are next connected
to a Wi-Fi network, when the download will resume automatically. You can view and
manage these queued files in the Downloads app as well.
Downloaded files are stored in the Download directory in your tablet’s internal
storage. You can view and copy files from this directory when connected to a
computer, as described in “Connecting to networks and devices” on page 57.
