I would like to make an ImageView display an image on a website. So I create a new ImageView and execute imgView.setImageURI(uri);

I've wrote a simple AsyncTask, which converts remote HTTPS to local Uri by caching to SD card:

public class ProfileImageTask extends AsyncTask {

    private boolean enforce = false;
    private IProfileImageTask listener;
    private String fileName = "photo.jpg";
    private String sdPath;
    private String url;

    /** Constructor */
    @RequiresPermission(Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
    public ProfileImageTask(@NonNull Context context, @NonNull String url, @NonNull IProfileImageTask listener) {
        this.sdPath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/" + context.getResources().getString(R.string.app_name) + "/";
        this.listener = listener;
        this.url = url;
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {

        /* setup destination directory */
        File directory = new File(this.sdPath + "temp");
        if (! directory.exists()) {directory.mkdirs();}

        /* setup file name */
        String[] parts = this.url.split("/");
        this.fileName = parts[parts.length - 1];
    }

    @Override
    protected Uri doInBackground(String... arguments) {
        File file = new File(this.sdPath + "temp", this.fileName);
        if(file.exists() && this.enforce) {file.delete();}
        if (! file.exists()) {
            try {
                URLConnection conn = new URL(this.url).openConnection();
                conn.connect();
                InputStream in = conn.getInputStream();
                FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
                byte[] b = new byte[1024]; int c;
                while ((c = in.read(b)) != -1) {out.write(b, 0, c);}
                out.close();
                in.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                Log.e("ProfileImageTask", e.getMessage());
            }
        }    
        return Uri.fromFile(file);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onPostExecute(Uri uri) {
        if (listener != null && uri != null) {
            this.listener.OnImageAvailable(uri);
        }
    }
}

The interface:

public interface IProfileImageTask {
    void OnImageAvailable(@NonNull Uri uri);    
}

And the implementation:

@Override
public void OnImageAvailable(@NonNull Uri uri) {
    this.photoUrl.setImageURI(uri);
}

Tested with url alike https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/.../photo.jpg (which has about 179kb). One could still downscale larger images, render a set of thumbnails or pass the intended size.
