Thank you for your feedback. This is not a bug. This is caused by the permission to the Thunkable Live App.  
The `webview of Android` and the `webkit of iOS` uses the **download folder** of the default browser and the Thunkable App does **not** have permission to write to that folder.

The next version of the solution, will have a user selection for the folder to overcome this issue.
