Downloaded items not appearing in downloads folder

[Dr McKay]

I’m not sure which forum section to post this in, I had this issue from time to time on iOS 18.X too.

Basically, when I download some files through Safari they normally appear in Downloads in iCloud, I’ve downloaded the same file 3 times now and it’s not appearing, I’ve rebooted my phone and it’s still not in the folder. Have they changed where downloaded files go?

I’ve had that happen with images a lot. Saved to some temp folder instead of where it belongs. You’re not doing anything wrong, it’s just buggy. You need to click on the tab bar, go to downloads and open and save the file that it said it already downloaded.
