Describe the bug
getDirectoryPath() method on android gives access to media-only files but not the files like .zip, .csv etc. If this is the intended behavior then requesting MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission is the only way?

Platform

  • Android

Platform OS version
Android 11

How are you picking?

final directoryPath = await FilePicker.platform.getDirectoryPath();

Details to reproduce the issue

  1. use the method on android 11.
  2. select any directory with non media files.
