in order to get the image saved to phone you need to dl from an url. This can be found from the api youre using .if it is possible.In my case the api had the information i needed:the image and so on. The url can be used in thunkable blocks adding an button and assigning “when clicked” open url and so forth. This is a kind of workaround. Ill add the code blocks to clarify.
