Hello @aaadii_here!

Could you try moving your local files to a different folder in the SD card to see if that makes the difference? Also, can you let me know if moving them to the internal storage makes the app recognise them?

Keep me posted 🙂

Hello @aaadii_here!

Thanks for your reply. I'm glad to hear this was fixed and everything's fine now. Possibly an app update did the trick.

If you have any other concerns, you know where to ask!
