You need to make a "standard" backup first in the desired location on the removable or internal storage before the directory becomes writable. On Android 10 this is unavoidable, when I finally get Android 11 on my device I can test with adding the required permission (manage storage permission) to fix this proper.
Thanks for the quick reply, i can't make a "standard" backup, or anything, i have the same error. I want make an encrypted backup i have the error, same for plaintext backup. I want import a backup, i have the error too.
Or maybe i don't understand what is a "standard" backup ^^
That is the backup that the official Signal client offers, menu - settings- chats - chat backups - create backup.
ok, i tried it, same problem, the "official" backup works but when i want make a plaintext backup it say "error, unable write to storage"

I guess we got same issue. It doesn't seem to be working on Android 11.
Ok, thanks for your answer, I just want to have my messages unencrypted, if there are other techniques, I take.
To keep you informed Same problem with 5.5.1.0-JW version.
I implemented a fix for Android 11 in 5.5.2.0-JW but I can't test it, could you please try? The first time you try to export or import a backup you should get a system popup asking permission to manage the file system.
I succed to import the sms from the encrypted backup when installing the application, but unable to make a plaintext backup I have record the problem
It works !
you must choose "authorize the management of all files"
thks Johanw for your app !
Thank you @Bazarov42 for this tip, it just helped me 👍
