When we can expect this library for android 11+? #7

Hello @amitimg29 , Starting Android 11, access to shared storage has been restricted and it is no longer possible to implement such a broad file selector without the use of Storage Access Framework(SAF) or by declaring the All files access permission (link). The most practical solution available right now is to check the android version at runtime and implement the file picker accordingly. The app will then use the library for API < 10 and for API>=10 it will use the system file picker. The android 11 update for this library is still in works.
