Description

I want to download a video and play it with react-native-video when the user is offline. I am using expo-file-system for downloading the video. Providing a file path via source prop uri only works in android. Is there any way to use a local file path for iOS or any other way of achieving this?

Why it is needed ?

Only being able to use web as uri on iOS is unexpected and limiting.

Possible implementation
