I need to ask the user to select a file.

For Windows client I use a TOpenDialog.

On Android (and iOS) thats more difficult because TOpenDialog don't work. All subject speak about external library but all are deprecated, because sample was done with XE5 or XE6.

I'm using 10.3, does something exist to just ask the user to select a file ? any sample ? that's insane thats nothing exist and that each developer need to do it from scratch..

Thanks

This looks like a good starting point: [open-file-manage-and-get-selected-file](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30929489). Now you just have to adapt it to the style of your own application. – Freddie Bell Apr 15 '20 at 15:11
thanks, but I already see it, so I need to do it from scratch :( – Bosshoss Apr 15 '20 at 17:59

There is nothing "easy" in Android development - not for Java developers or Delphi one's. – Freddie Bell Apr 15 '20 at 18:14
I know, but it's pity that a lot of people lose time to do stuff that can be useful to a lot of developers – Bosshoss Apr 15 '20 at 18:39
Did you try using intents for this in android. It works I have tested it before. – Nasreddine Galfout Apr 17 '20 at 13:54
