Could you add the possibility to choose where to download files?

I have tryied the firefox workaround with adding download.dir to configurqtion, but it does not work. :crazy:

If it is possible, could it be also for the external sdcard?

Thanks.

You already can choose where files are downloaded to.

I don't think that's going to work for the Android version of Pale Moon...

There's a bunch of potentially useful settings for changing this behavior in about:config but I don't have time to mess with them right now.

I think you can change it by altering browser.download.dir and browser.dwnload.folderList in about:config

This is somewhat inconvenient however, especially if you need to switch the directory often
