backup restore (from old app to new) does not work

I am using the pro version for over 10 years. Now I have seen that the development is going on. But it is not possible to use backup and restore in the current version.

• I skipped the dialog to select a news provider source
• backup does not work, there is a very short message about something missing. But it is to short to read it. Maybe this is because I did not yet set something.
• restore can't find any file. Maybe the old pro reader and the new reader have different places to store backups. But if I can't create a backup I can't find the place.
• I will try to change some settings. Maybe then I can save something and find the place where to place the backup from the pro version.
• I would request to implement an easy way to share backups between the old pro version and the new version

The issue was missing access to the file system because I skipped the initial setup process. When I went through this process I was asked to allow access to the file system. And after this I was able to save and restore. I suggest to allow a restore in this initial setup process to be able to skip to select a provider.

The copy saves to / storage / emulate / 0 / gReader / backup (it would be a gReader folder in the storage) It would be nice to be able to choose where to save, I use a synced folder. Another good option would be to allow saving in google drive.
