MainApp().run()

This is my main.py. I've mentioned everything about permission. During run time my app asks for media and photo access permission but don't asks for file access permission.That's why my app can't save the file site.html.I've mentioned every possible permission in buildozer.spec file but still not working.But other apps like PicsArt ask for photo,media and file access permission. But my app don't. Please help me.My Android version is 11

This is how my app look likes during run time

And this how other apps look likes during run time.I want my app to ask the same permissions like this app

I need file access permission to create file

Although I am new here , I had the same problem and I had to make alot of research. What I could come up with is the Permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE. I added it to my buildozer.spec file. It prompted me to view and write only media files . I had to go to settings to allow File access permission which is the uttermost permission. Just add Permission.READ..., Permission.WRITE... and Permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE TO YOUR app source file and to your buildozer.spec file. Note use try and except because android 10 an less requires only Read and write permission. Only android 11 and above allows read, write and manage permission

In an Android 11 device your app cannot write files in root of external storage.

Instead use one of the public directories in external storage like DCIM, Pictures, Documents, Download and so on.
