Hi, updated the app and tried again but "download" does not seem to do anything, or at least I cannot find the pictures in my gallery. Does the download folder have to be configured somewhere? Couldn't find the setting. Thanks!

Mine save into Internal > Pictures > Connect Perhaps your gallery app is not looking there?

Oh thanks - I couldn't find a connect-folder there but then realized to look for app permissions. Didn't know it has to be manually activated. edit: unfortunately it still doesn't work, also after restart; permission is active but no connect folder appears

Downloading pictures also works fine for me. After you tap on Download, Connect should do so and then you'll get a prompt in the bottom left corner that says "Saved picture." Does that appear?

I thought maybe you denied storage permission and you're on an earlier version of Android but I checked another phone on Android 11 and downloading pictures works fine with storage permission denied.
