Hello,  
there are some topics here that sound similar to my question, but I couldn’t find what I am looking for. I would like to store a list in a txt file to my phone. It shall work offline. Is it possible?  
Best wishes  
Woto

Currently, there isn’t an option to download files in thunkable. I would recommend searching Google for an API that could convert your list into a .txt file.

Is that possible with the free thunkable account or do I need the paid one?

You can do that with the free thunkable account. make sure the web API isn’t paid and you have logged on to it. And enter your key in place of `YOUR API KEY` or something like that.  
Otherwise, you will get something like this:

```auto
{"message": 
           { " status" : 403 },
                               { "error" : Unauthorised request "}

```

I tried the Send-Email-Function, that solves my Problem!
