Some debugging suggestions:

1. Check the TRACKS tab to see if any tracks are displayed. a. This is to see if the issue is due to maybe me messing up the filtering logic for displaying tracks for this feature.
2. Go to the INSIGHTS screen from the settings page and send a screenshot. a. We want to see the value next to the "Save Error" statistic to see if at least the tracks were detected, but rejected for some reason.
3. Try clearing the app storage to force re-indexing. a. There might be some random issue with saving the first time.

If the tracks were detected but rejected, I think I might know the reason why: I currently have in the @missingcore/audio-metadata package to throw an error if a track has no tags, which I kind of forgot about. This should be fixed in v1.0.0-rc.11 when I change what we use for reading the metadata, which should be faster than what we have currently.

1. Tracks tab also shows "folder is empty"

2. Insights shows 8 save erors (I have 8 audio files)

3. Tried alot of reinstalling/clearing didn't make a difference

@learning-thing @Avichal1234 v1.0.0-rc.11 has been released and should fix the potential causes for the problem.

• We now use an Android API for getting the metadata of tracks (previous was manual logic).
• We add a new allowlist/blocklist feature in case your music isn't located in the Music directory on your device.
