Android: save a file from an existing URI

Question

How to save a media file (say .mp3) from an existing URI, which I am getting from an Implicit Intent?

Answer 1

1.Create a file from a URI path as:

File from = new File(uri.toString());

2.Create another File where you want the file to save as:

File to = new File("target file path");

3.Rename the file as:

from.renameTo(to);

With this the file from default path is automatically deleted and created at the new path.
