I also have this error

Same here, the regular version of newpipe works great while importing.

Also experiencing this. I tried checking the storage permission for the app but no luck. The only one available to enable says "Allow access to media only", so I think the wrong permission is requested. Zip and CSV might require another permission.

I have the same problem too, but mine was caused by importing to this debug apk (removed), exporting it, and importing it on version 0.22.2. importing older settings/subscriptions won't cause this issue though, so if you have older backups, you can try importing that and see if its not crashed...

Same, Android 12L, NewPipe 0.23.0
When I try .csv crash, when I try zip don't work, I get message: could not import subscriptions

I can't reproduce this issue. Try using the latest release of my fork. If you can consistently reproduce this problem I'll re-open this issue.
