Hmmm, this might be the case on your end, but it’s not in general; I just downloaded the .csv w/o issues using the Android app:
-
In case you want do save the logs on external storage, you can use the FTP Client app for example.
First add a FTP enabled server / NAS to Homey per FTP Client app

Another possibility is using a syslog server.

When you want to peek the log every now and then, you can save and open this html file (change the IP address to your Homey’s IP
<!-- Save as html file and open it to view the logs -->
<!-- NOTE: at line 48: Replace IP address with IP address of your Homey -->
