I will update the necessary permission in the snap profile, and there's a workaround for v0.3.2.

sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/apparmor/profiles/snap.appflowy.appflowy /etc/apparmor.d/
sudo apt install apparmor-utils
sudo aa-complain snap.appflowy.appflowy
snap run appflowy

@laszukdawid I have added the required permission in the snap file. please try to install the latest version 'appflowy(12)' again.
