SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In the main menu of KDE Connect hit "Share file" to an android device.
2. Select the file. I chose a pdf.

OBSERVED RESULT
Android device gives a notification to open. Clicking the notification results in nothing.

EXPECTED RESULT
The recieved file should have opened.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Upon checking the directory on the Android device, no file was recieved.

On the contrary, right clicking the KDE Connect icon in the taskbar and selecting Share file, works as expected. Just the Share File option from the main window does not function as expected.
