It is thr best bur on grapheneos, only the file manager from grapheneos has full access. I had to switch between file managers and one day I gave up. I only use the built-in one ...
I use GrapheneOS too and I don't have this issue. Did you give it the right permission?
Maybe I should have a look again?
I use it for nextcloud/webdav and accessing the data storage folder of gpslogger which was historically in the android/data folder.
Edit: it's still forbidden to access android/data ... they introduced that "security/privacy" features 1-2 years ago when they also forbid to us ethe Downloads folder directly for provacy reasons
IIRC there's a special setting to give it full access that you actually have to go into settings to add (you can't just add it from the prompts).
I can't find anything
Settings - > Apps - > Special App Access - > All Files Access.
I don't have a rooted phone. It does not work.
