Music on phone

[mikal83]

Can a techy type help me out.

I have an early moto g phone, its only 8gb so I bought a 64gb sd card as my old samsung mp3 is also only 8gb and I thought I'd tx all music over and then upload all my old cd's. Did that and made sure they went to the sd card and not phones memory BUT the problem is I cant see ALL of the music I uploaded.

I plug the phone into my laptop and badda boom, there they are but on the phone not all. The default is google play. Is there a better prog I can download to store the music in???

Doesn’t that depend on what capacity sd card the said phone supports?

Yes.

Moto G 1st Gen 8gb or 16gb card supported - https://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_g-5831.php
Moto G 2nd Gen up to 32gb card supported - https://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_g_(2nd_gen)...

Might be worth trying out a few of the other Music players on the App store, there's loads to choose from with lots of basic and tricksy features, just see what takes your fancy.

I've stuck with PowerAmp over the years and it's pretty good with plenty of features.

Once you point it at the folder, it'll scan and list out your folders / albumen / artists etc and you can then see if anythings "still" missing...

Sounds like it's not supported then.

That was my initial thought.

The OP needs a newer phone.

Phone is fine. Could it be google play. Loaded the ampplayer and wow, all albums etc have appeared so its NOT the phone!

Pi Music Player is the best I've found on Android.
