Forbidden Downloads

Lately I've had a very rare error when downloading apks from Itch.io on mobile (and I say Itch.io specifically because I have not had problems with other sites), and that is that the downloads change to "Forbidden" when almost finishing downloading, I'm almost certainly it is because of my phone (Redmi Note 9), since I haven't had this problem when downloading on my PC, could someone help me? Right now I am downloading the same file from Incognito Mode as I read that it may be that.

Thanks in advance.

Edit 1: The same error downloading from Incognito Mode

This happens if the download fails and you try to restart it again to complete it. To protect access to files on our server, the download links are uniquely generated and expire after a few seconds. The same URL can not be used again to access the file after it expires. You will need to download the file all in one go without any interruptions to your network connection.

Hope that helps.

The problem here is that I start a download and do nothing, just leave the phone in the desk and let it download, I do exactly the same on my PC and it works just fine

I think the itch.io app supports resuming download, you could try it.
