This is a known problem with Android webview not supporting blob URL's for download. On react-native-webview's side this is being fixed by react-native-webview/react-native-webview#2091

[bitgamma]

the bug in react-native-webview should be fixed upstream. Since we are using a fork and made some changes integrating the fix will probably not be trivial. Ideally, I want to try to avoid using our fork altogether since in the meantime upstream has received many improvements and seems to also implement the functionality we implemented in our fork (although probably is not 1-to-1 compatible, let's see). I updated our fork and applied our changes
