      Device: Samsung galaxy s7
      Android: 7.0
      Cannot open file in default app which application downloaded to internal storage. This file can be opened if you navigate to it with any 3rdparty file explorer.

      Getting the following error:

      seems like we should use new android API (FileProvider):
