On save file don’t use External storage, use your app specific location,

From extension of filetool

The image shows a code block calling the TaifunFile1's ApplicationSpecificDirectory method, which returns the file path '/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/io.makeroid.companion/files' as the result. (Captioned by AI)

That’s a bug, which also exists in App Inventor, see here
