Description
Description
I noticed on iOS network resource caching is working which is expected, but on android we don't have any cache layer control even though we are using Volley which provides response caching (maybe right now it works only if headers are provided?)
While implementing Rive in React Native it felt as the package also supports caching out of the box, which is not the case right now while other platform SDKs do provide it. I feel we should mention this somewhere in documentation (maybe a small note in Loading in Rive files section) for React Native implementation.
Provide a Repro
<Rive
url="https://someurl/qwerty.riv"
fit={Fit.Contain}
autoplay={true}
/>
Source .riv/.rev file
.riv
Expected behavior
I expected the animation file to be cached across app launches on both platforms android as well as ios

Research direction
Review the React Native Rive component’s URL loading path and the Android Volley behavior described in the issue, then compare it with iOS resource caching. Check the “Loading in Rive files” documentation section; done means URL-loaded .riv assets are cached across app launches on both platforms and the behavior is documented.
