Does not support Android 10 #276

Th e app doesn't seem to work in android 10 I used it to backup my crucial apps, had to format my device, reinstalled Android switching to 10 and i couldn't restore backups, which silently didn0t work if i tried restoring the data and gave an error if i tried restoring data and APK. I moved the backups from my phone to my laptop and back before trying to restore them if that's relevant The app records the backups as being from 1 Jan 1970, so the timecode is also incorrect

Do you have spaces in path? I experienced similar issue, and it was able to restore after changing backup folders path.

My experience was that the version on F-Droid doesn't work on Android 10/Q but the OandBackupX version does. I couldn't even select a backup location folder on Q.

I do not believe this app works with Android 10 at all.

Are there any plans to continue the development of this app? I greatly prefer this implementation over the oandbackupx version due to the elegant GPG encryption. The new fork has developed it's own encryption which is not a best practice (potentially less secure than GPG) and not as portable- you can't easily decrypt and work with the data without using the app.
