This example demonstrates how do I use the Android Picasso library to download images.
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Add the following dependency to the build gradle (Module: app)
implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.4.0'
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent"
   android:padding="4dp"
   tools:context=".MainActivity">
   <ImageView
      android:id="@+id/imageView"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="match_parent"
      android:layout_above="@id/btnDownload"/>
   <Button
      android:id="@+id/btnDownload"
      android:layout_width="match_parent"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:textAlignment="center"
      android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
      android:text="Download Image"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Step 3 − Add the following code to src/MainActivity.java
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import com.squareup.picasso.Picasso;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
   ImageView imageView;
   Button btnDownload;
   @Override
   protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
      imageView = findViewById(R.id.imageView);
      btnDownload = findViewById(R.id.btnDownload);
      btnDownload.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
         @Override
         public void onClick(View v) {
            Picasso.with(MainActivity.this)
               .load("https://images.pexels.com/photos/1212487/pexels-photo1212487.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=2&h=750&w=1260")
               .into(imageView);
         }
      });
   }
}
Step 4 − Add the following code to androidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" package="app.com.sample">
   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
   <application
      android:allowBackup="true"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
      android:supportsRtl="true"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
         <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
               <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
               <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
         </activity>
   </application>
</manifest>
