Android Question How to download non-https url images with targetSdkVersion = "28"

[Mikonios]

Our App needs images of some public urls that do not work with https, only through http.
After the change of Google in API 28 and aligning the user's security, the connection with non-https url is not allowed. Is there a way or alternative to download these ??

Thanks for the answers

How are you accessing the images? Some code would help!

        For i = 0 To Main.MyPoisTA1.Size - 1
            Dim Values() As String = Main.MyPoisTA1.Get(i)
            Dim MyFile1 As String = "ta" & Csr.ExtraeCadena("." & Values(9), ".", ".", True) & ".png"
            If File.Exists(Main.DirIco, MyFile1) = False Then
                Dim j As HttpJob

add this in manifest

CreateResourceFromFile(Macro, Core.NetworkClearText)

see this post

android.jar / targetSdkVersion / minSdkVersion

There are several versioned components that affect the compilation process and the runtime behavior of our apps. The purpose of this tutorial is to explain the differences between them and help you choose which version to use. Each Android version is mapped to an api level. You can see this...
