In some cases, they may even do so deliberately. Perhaps if you name the files appropriately, people using file explorers will see the obvious consequence of deleting them. In any case, I suppose your app can download them again (and you can add a guide message in case the real issue is how to deal with complaints.)
Have you considered that the SD card is really just a cache, that is, just like a browser locally saves web pages and assets? That way the app would still work (albeit slowly) if there is no SD card or little free space on it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
