Cannot Load Local PDF Android

[mdyrho]

Hi,
I have been trying to open a local pdf stored in streaming assets. However when I try to open the file it just loads infinitely.

here is my code:

  public void OpenLocalPdf(string path)
    {

        #if (UNITY_IOS || UNITY_ANDROID) && !UNITY_EDITOR
        InAppBrowser.OpenLocalFile(path);
        Debug.Log("Opened!" + path);
        #else
        Debug.LogWarning($"Attempted to open '{path}' in InAppBrowser, but that " +
                         $"only works on iOS and Android, not in Editor or on desktop");
        #endif
    }

Receiving the path from an on click event or writing it directly in the script produces the same result.

This is expected, Android webviews do not support PDFs, you would have to use pdf.js or something similar.
