Where Does Shuttle Store Data on Android?

Shuttle keeps its library index plus settings in app-private storage on Android. Rescan collections after moving devices.

Last updated

Shuttle stores its library index and preferences in app-private storage on Android. Music stays in shared folders where your collection lives. The app reads those places rather than duplicating tracks.

Manage exclusions and playlists inside the app. Direct browsing of Android data folders needs root, so in-app exports are the portable copy. Keep music backups apart from app settings.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Shuttle to a new phone?

Copy your music folders to the new device, then let Shuttle rescan them. Playlists need the in-app export where available. Settings travel separately.

Songs missing from Shuttle. Where are they?

Look in shared Music folders first. Shuttle indexes those places rather than copying tracks inside. Missing songs usually mean a folder got excluded.
