Thank you for your reply Anke.
After removing the WRITE permission, the app the working but this won't work on other android versions..?
Show all relevant blocks.
I have uploaded them here in the first post...
And again: all relevant blocks
I downloaded them with 'Download all blocks as image' option, so it really should download all the blocks
Ok, I got it.
You don't need WRITE permission if you save the picture in the ASD.
But you saved the picture in the external storage:
and you used a relative path. I'm not sure, if the extension can also handle a relative path (but as @Taifun has shown in his block for the ASD he used an absolute path:

you are storing the taken image in /Pictures
why don't you follow the already given advice and store it in the ASD?
see also Q2 https://puravidaapps.com/camera.php#q
also as starting with SDK30 only CAMERA permission is required, you can simplify your blocks, see also the already updated timelapse example there https://puravidaapps.com/camera.php

Thanks, I will try this 
Hi Anke,
This actually works but I need to save the image in external storage which would need this permission. So, what about the permission rejection?
As I have said often enough, WRITE permission no longer exists on Android 11. Therefore it is impossible(*) to save in external storage. But you can move the image from the ASD to the shared storage, e.g. to /Pictures.
(*) Only with MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, which Google most likely will not grant.
