@breautek do you think a PR with only removing the `requestLegacyExternalStorage=true` here would move this issue a bit forward? Here's what I have in my inbox in play store console right now (I'm using a version from this repo and not a official version): 1. New apps must target API 30 by August, updates must target it by November 2. You are using the above flag, don't, we'll remove your app by may 5th So just removing this flag would allow using the latest version of this plugin from this repository which is not/will not be possible in a few weeks... As I said earlier, I have stopped using external storage almost completely after the release of Android 10 since I kinda figured this would be the direction google is going for... I still have issues opening files though which is annoying but I also solved this by associating files with my app and in general avoid using files but rather upload content to a server and store user data in a database... I'm beginning to think that using files is what we are used to from the old windows environment where folder and files were important, but as time progresses I see that more and more services are cloud based, and the usage of files is becoming annoying and inconvenient (compare the UX of word to google docs - the fact that in google docs everything is there, available, allows multiple users to edit, share, see and what not seems like the future to me... I might be completely wrong though :-)) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
