How to download a pdf from UIWebview

Hi,


I have an app where we are using UIWebview to show HTML content. That page has links to PDF and upon touch the pdf is opening inside UIWebview. Is there a way to download the PDF locally instead of opening inside Webview?


Thanks

Shaik Ahmed

Is there a reason you’re using UIWebView rather than the more modern WKWebView? WKWebView makes a variety of things easier, including this. Specifically, look at the various delegate callbacks in the WKNavigationDelegate protocol.

Share and Enjoy
