I would like to load saved image on cache into Image of Jetpack Compose using Coil. I searched in stackoverflow but all suggested ways are for loading web urls. I know that It's possible to convert image file to bitmap and then pass it to Coil but is there any builtin solution for it?

You can use Coil to load any object as a data:

val cacheFile = File(context.cacheDir, "filename")
Image(
    rememberImagePainter(cacheFile),
    contentDescription = "...",
)

If you've a locally saved image path, you can try the following method,

val painter = rememberImagePainter(data = File(filePath))
Image(
    painter = painter,
    contentDescription = null)

and to load image from remote url,

val painter = rememberImagePainter(data = imageUrl)
Image(
    painter = painter,
    contentDescription = null)
