shopping list is reset after using filechooser to select storage directory

[abstractionmage]

Up until this day I used ShoppingList without setting up a ShoppingList text file, and only now decided to give this feature a try. However, after granting ShoppingList permission to read and write files from and to my device and selecting one of the recommended file paths for shopping lists, namely /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.woefe.shoppinglist/files/Documents, all entries I previously added to my shopping list were cleared and nowhere to be found.

EDIT: The lost shopping list can be restored by either reinstalling the app or selecting /data/user/0/com.woefe.shoppinglist/files/ShoppingLists as the storage directory using the built-in filechooser.

Maybe there could be a way for the app to more directly inform the user about this behavior?
