You make sure external storage access is permitted by user for your app. Include this code for the download

DownloadManager downloadManager = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
     Uri uri = Uri.parse(url_string);
     DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(uri);        
     request.setVisibleInDownloadsUi(true);        request.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE_NOTIFY_COMPLETED);
    // include this line if permission has been granted by user to external directory
     request.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, uri.getLastPathSegment());  
// or this line if not yet granted
request.setDestinationUri(Uri.parse("file://" + uri.getLastPathSegment());      
    Long reference = downloadManager.enqueue(request);
