You can select Google Drive/Dropbox when backing up the vault.

One of the authors here.
Unfortunately, Google Drive and Dropbox only partially participate in Android's Storage Access Framework. In Aegis, exporting only requires the creation of a file, so that works with both. Configuring backups on the other hand requires selecting a folder, but most cloud providers don't support that. A notable exception is Nextcloud.

How about cloud paas providers like AWS? The user could generate a IAM access key with permissions to manage a specific bucket and configure Aegis with the key. Aegis would use the cloud Api to upload the backup.
If that is of interest, I could help implement that.

doesn't seem to show for me, only internal space. I have no idea why.
edit: this is not released yet, I think

Might have a solution for you here:
As I see, it backs up to the internal storage, so I have to use another app to sync the backup to a cloud of my choice
