File storage

When your app needs user file uploads (images, PDFs, and similar), Mythex can enable file storage for the project automatically. You do not provision a bucket by hand. App storage is available on Free and Pro. Free is capped at 1 GB.

Your files

Open the project name → Settings → File storage (on a phone, tap the project name and choose File storage). Until your app stores something, it says No file storage yet or No files yet. Project settings → File storage Every file your app has stored is listed with its size and when it last changed, with the total at the top.
  • Search finds a word anywhere in a file’s name.
  • Sort by clicking Name, Size or Modified. Newest first is the default.
  • Open, Download or Delete any file from its row. Deleting asks first; anything in your app that shows that file stops showing it.
  • The list shows 25 files at a time, with arrows to move between pages.

Download all

Download all puts every file into one .zip and downloads it, with the folders kept as they are. It takes a few seconds for a small app and longer for a large one; the download starts by itself when it’s ready. It works on Free and Pro, even when your Cloud credits are empty. A zip holds up to 5 GB. If your files add up to more, download them one by one.

How to use it

Ask the agent to add upload flows (for example profile photos or document uploads). Prefer the platform storage path over inventing local disk persistence — published hosting is not a durable local filesystem.

Your app’s storage key

Your app reaches its files with a storage key that belongs to this project alone. It can read and write only this project’s own folder — never another project’s files, and nothing else in the account. Mythex gives it to your app for you, in the preview and when you publish; you never paste a key in.

What it costs

Stored files and downloads spend from monthly Cloud credits (File storage category), like publishing and hosting: storage by size, measured hourly, and downloads by how much is downloaded — including files you open or download from settings. Pro pays half the Free rate — see Hosting limits.
