Good day, I have a fairly new android phone and can not down load the app. Gospel Library. Always get the message (Failed to create download directory). Beginning to believe my phone is broken in some fashion, anyone else experienced this, any ideas for a fix. I miss not having access to all of that good stuff:(

What kind of phone do you have, and what version of Android are you running? Are you installing Gospel Library through the Google Play store? Does the "failed to create download directory" message come up when you try to install the app through Google Play, or is it the first time you open the app after installing? Have you tried deleting and reinstalling?

I am getting the same error. Moto E, running LineageOS, Android 7.1. Tried using both internal and external storage. I am getting this error constantly.

This error comes after installing the app. When the Gospel Library first launches, it says it can't create the download library. It then says that over and over again as you try to do anything in the app. I have also tried giving the app permissions to access the SD card.

This is a clean reinstall of the phone in the last couple of days. Can't get the app to work on the phone. This error and the LDS Music App crashing on load are the only anomalies on the phone. Everything else on the phone seems fine.

Could there be some library or dependency missing?

Found the answer!

Under Android Settings --> Storage, it shows the SD card I am currently using (which is formatted as internal storage) and it showed an SD card that was not present. This phone only has room for one. I touched the missing SD card and there was an option to forget the card. It then appeared that the internal card was gone and that there still was and SD card not present. I touched that one and chose forget again. Then it looked like I had no SD card. I navigated back to settings and then back to storage. The internal SD card was there and there were no missing cards. This solved the issue with Gospel Library as well as a handful of other issues I had discovered this morning.

I have Gospel Library on my Ipad Pro. But it will not allow me to install the Gospel Library app on my Kindle. When I try to install the app, it says it is already installed.

What's the exact error message you get when you try to install it on your Kindle Fire? Are you installing it from the Amazon Appstore? Are you sure it's not already installed and available on your device?

I am using Android smart phone. I couldn't open my gospel library after I reinstalled the apps. It keeps telling me to connect to the internet in which I already did at the first place. I managed to download the apps but once I opened the apps, it says that I need to connect to the internet. There's nothing wrong with my internet.

Try turning on airplane mode, opening the app, and then turn off airplane mode. The have the app refresh.
