Android System Restrictions
According to the Admin Dog,
“Due to the new Android system restrictions, downloaded files are now stored in
storage/Android/data/org.telegram.messenger/cache.Its visibility will depend on file manager app’s permission access (for some apps its content is shown as empty so it is not visible).”
This description itself is not satisfactory for the Telegram users as they are waiting for a permanent fix to this issue. Users are demanding Telegram officials to resolve this issue and make folders visible again. Similar to WhatsApp files visibility, users demand alternative options or a timely fix to this serious matter.
