Hi guys, in your opinion, what would be the best way to download files on Android in 2020? Ktor client, Retrofit or DownloadManager API? Or maybe something else.

+1 for retrofit

[Anastasia Finogenova]

I am pretty happy with retrofit

Retrofit. Ktor if multiplatform

If your you don’t want to cancel the call if user close the app then go for DownloadManager else go for Retrofit

DownloadManager. Has a lot of neat configurations like internet connection and resuming downloading, if you don’t want to handle it by yourself.
