How to download a picture from my phone?

Hi!
Making an application for QML for Android. How to download a picture from my phone? Normal Qt dialogue will not work, tried it, not very convenient.

from your phone? If you want to download from phone, then where do you want to save it? On some external server, your PC?

Sorry, but it is steal not clear what you mean.
Do you want to download a picture ON your phone (in your app), or do you want to connect your phone to a PC and download from smartphone to PC?
Please be more precise when asking questions!
If it is the second: do you want to download and upload to server in a Qt application on PC?

Do you mean you want to upload and image from your phone to an external server?

If so, read the server's documentation.

I guess you meant to say stiletto :P

@Mikeeeeee you can check this solved issue maybe?

I find this code.

You can use this code to navigate through my phone's folders. But where are the folders that are visible when I connect my phone to my computer?

That's usually what Android calls SD card (even if it is not an SD card...). See https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/64046/where-is-the-home-folder

Mikeeeeee

Strange, if I open the sdcard folder, then this folder is displayed empty.

I would suggest that your app perhaps doesn't have storage permissions, which need to be given manually.

... And of course, people could more easily give ideas of possible problems if you, for example, describe in detail how you do the opening.

The application asked for permission to access the files. Other sub-folders it shows the files are not showing. Link to the code in my previous message.
