My downloads from facebook won't appear in the file manager

[Android Central Question]

I downloaded .pdf files from Facebook and I can only view them as a notification. I already turned the storage permission on for the application. Where can I find my files?

Have you check your file manager?

Welcome to Android Central! Use your file manager to look for the downloaded files in the phone's storage. Make sure you use the file manager's Explore option -- don't just select the Downloads category.

When exploring, look first in the /Download directory. If it's not there, then start looking through other directories -- Facebook might create its own data directory where downloaded files go. It might be a subdirectory of the /Android directory, and if you don't see "Facebook" there, then also look for "katana" or "orca," which are codenames for Facebook apps.
