Hello, @myxzlpltk

To resolve this issue,

=> Add below into android > main > res > xml folder (if not available then create new) => create new .xml file with named 'provider_paths' under the xml folder and paste below code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths>
    <external-files-path name="external_files" path="."/>
    <external-path
        name="external"
        path="." />
    <cache-path
        name="cache"
        path="." />
    <external-cache-path
        name="external_cache"
        path="." />
    <files-path
        name="files"
        path="." />
</paths>

=> Now add below code into you AndroidManifest.xml file

<provider
            android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider"
            android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/provider_paths"/>
        </provider>

Issue is Resolved!!

Happy Coding!
