Can someone please point me in the right direction. I have been googling for ages and I’m not getting great results.

I want my app to allow the user to download a file from the USB/SDcard. Specifically an image, which then later gets used in my app.

I can’t seem to find anything, been searching for open file dialogs and nothing..

So:

1) User inserts USB device/SDCard.
2) User gets file browser dialog.
3) User finds image from USB/SDCard
4) App grabs image and stores it for later use.

Thanks 🙂
