Troubleshooting

Downloads not starting

Confirm the device has an active internet connection and that FlowFetch has notification permission. Check that the chosen save destination still exists and is writable.

Torrent has no peers or seeds

Some torrents have few or no active peers and cannot be completed regardless of app behaviour. Try again later, or confirm the torrent or magnet link is still valid at its source.

Magnet metadata waiting

Magnet links must fetch metadata from the network before file selection appears. This can take longer, or fail, if the swarm has few peers.

Storage destination issues

If FlowFetch cannot write to a selected folder, the folder's permission may have been revoked. Choose the destination again from FlowFetch settings.

Background download troubleshooting

Some Android devices restrict background activity by default. Check battery optimization settings for FlowFetch if transfers pause when the app is not in the foreground.

Notification troubleshooting

Download progress and completion notifications require notification permission. Enable it from Android Settings › Apps › FlowFetch › Notifications.

Status Saver folder access

Status Saver needs a folder selected through Android's system folder picker. If media stops appearing, the selected folder may have moved or its permission may have been revoked; choose the folder again in FlowFetch.

Playback and open-with issues

If a file will not open in the built-in viewer, confirm the download finished completely, or use "Open with" to try another compatible app.
