You can solve this error this way

1. Create a folder under

android > app > src > main >xml

2.Create a files named-

filepaths.xml

3.Paste this code into filepaths.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<paths xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <external-path name="external_files" path="." />
</paths>

4. In manifest just use this code

    <application
            android:label="iCare"
            android:name="${applicationName}"
            android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
            android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher">
            <provider
            android:name="androidx.core.content.FileProvider"
            android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"
            android:exported="false"
            android:grantUriPermissions="true">
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
                android:resource="@xml/filepaths" />
        </provider>
   

Boom it will work again.
