Currently, files downloaded by the Cozy mobile app are downloaded in Android/data/io.cozy.files_client/cache/cozy-downloads/..., which is a system folder. That makes all the files invisible to apps (such as VLC, Photos, etc) that allow a listing of all compatible files, and makes it painful to the user to browse to the desired file because of the multitude of subfolders (when it knows where to find the said file), which makes the download pretty useless imho.

The best workaround would be to have a Cozy folder either in the phone's storage Downloads folder or at its root, so the user can actually use the content from its Cozy.
