You can use rn-fetch-blob

dirs - This constant is a hash map containing commonly used folders:

Usage

const dirs = RNFetchBlob.fs.dirs
const filePath = `${dirs.DownloadDir}/samplevideos/1.mp4`
<Video source={{uri: filePath }}
          volume={50}
          resizeMode="cover"
          style={styles.videoStyle}
  />
