Description

### Steps to reproduce
1. Install NextCloud
2. Download a file from your server

### Expected behaviour
Normally I'm able to upload pictures and music with my PC to my NextCloud server and download them on my phone. The files are automatically visible in Gallery and Music apps.

### Actual behaviour
No files downloaded from nextcloud are visible in ANY apps aside from NextCloud.

### Environment data
Android version: 10

Device model: SM960U

Nextcloud app version: 3.12.0

### Logs
No errors are produced.

I'd like it if your app just gave us the option of keying in a location with an "Expert Mode" Setting or something, so we can just fix this ourselves.
What's aggravating is it used to work, and then it's like you guys updated and all of a sudden we're back to bugs we had four years ago.
