Answer 1

The problem is that you need write permission to download a file and that is not supported in Instant apps. As you can see in the following link https://developer.android.com/topic/google-play-instant/faqs#general this are the supported permissions in Instant apps.

Which permissions are available to an instant app?

Instant apps can use the following Android permissions:

• BILLING
• ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
• ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
• ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
• CAMERA
• INSTANT_APP_FOREGROUND_SERVICE only in Android 8.0.
• INTERNET
• READ_PHONE_NUMBERS. This permission is available only in Android 8.0 (API level 26).
• RECORD_AUDIO
• VIBRATE
