Can't save files to Files on iPhone

Hi,


I have a problem saving files to Files on my iPhone.

For instance, when browsing Safari, I open a PDF file, press the "Share" icon and select Files in order to save the PDF to a certain folder. What happens then is that I can browse the files and folders on my Files app, but the "Save" button is grayed out (as can be seen in the attached screenshot).

Sometimes, after waiting a few seconds, it turns blue, and then saving is enabled (the waiting is also frustrating and I don't understand why it is needed, but that's a smaller problem). But sometimes, waiting does not help and I can't save the file at all.


Any ideas for solutions?
