Music app

Hi, after update to Android 10 all my music from sd card is not seen by Music app. 

Any suggestions how to bring it back please?

Hey Azzido,

Try doing a cache clear by using the volume up + power until you feel 3 vibrations, then re boot it.

It may take a few minutes after that to repopulate the discovered music list.

That sucks, ok try this.

Settings, apps, find "media storage"

Clear data and cache from this.

Reboot device.

On reboot it "should" start repopulating the database of all media, however, if after 5 minutes or so it still hasn't, try installing this

And let that run a full search.

Unable to find "media storage", maybe in Android 10 it is under different name? 
Tryied to do what you mentioned with Music app (clear cache) but it didn't work Slightly_frowning_Face

Surprisingly if I go to sd card via in builf "Files" app then I can play any of my .mp3 music. But it is like playing single song only without seeing ll of them in Muisc app so that many features like lists are missing.

I'd reckon not.

Sony is cutting costs.

I hope the new Mk II devices will bring new life and new spirit for Sony Xperia.
