Help! I Can’t Find a Downloaded Video on My Android Phone

Asked By SillyBanana89 On

Hey everyone, I really need some help here. I recently downloaded a video from this adult site called "az nude" using my Android phone. When I clicked the download button, a prompt popped up saying it was downloading, and Google even warned me that anyone using my device can see the downloaded files. After it said the download was successful, I checked my downloads but couldn't find the video at all. I feel totally embarrassed and worried, especially since I read that there might be some malware risks. I did a search for the file using the .mp4 name, but it's like it disappeared! I did notice it shows I downloaded something in my video files about 54 minutes ago. Right now, my phone seems fine, and I haven't noticed anything weird. I'm even getting an antivirus app to scan everything just to be safe. What should I do? Is there any way to find that file or remove it if it's hiding? Thanks for any advice!

Have you checked your Photos app? Sometimes media files can show up there even if they don’t appear in your downloads. It could be worth a look!

I checked, but it doesn’t show up as the most recent item there either. I ran a scan with Malwarebytes, and it didn’t find anything, but I’m still worried that the file is hiding somewhere on my device.

If it did download, it might be lurking in a hidden folder. Try looking in the 'File Manager' app if you have one, or see if there’s a way to view hidden files in the settings.

I’ll definitely check that out! Thanks for the suggestion.
