Where Does Gramophone Store Playlists and Settings?
Gramophone keeps its database and settings in private app storage, while your music stays in shared folders.
Last updated
Gramophone reads songs from shared storage and remembers everything in a private database: playlists, favorites, and layout choices. The music files themselves never move.
Reinstalling wipes the memory but not the music. Anything you want to keep across phones should be exported to playlist files first, since the database folder is not reachable without root.
Where Gramophone stores this, by platform
/data/data/com.goodwy.gramophone
Private storage with the library database and preferences. Confirm the package name on the Play Store listing if your file manager shows nothing, since forks rename it.
Frequently asked questions
how do i back up gramophone playlists
Export playlists to files in shared storage from inside the app. The private database is deleted with the app, so exports are the only copy that survives a reinstall.
where are gramophone settings stored
In the same private data folder as the library. Clearing app data resets the app to first launch state without touching a single music file.
