Manual also may helps to be little more independent of music streaming services but stay tuned with new releases
keywords: how to make visible music cached by telegram, where telegram stores its cached tracks, how to create playlist with all my telegram cached tracks if they continuously get regular updates
I use
[Free and open source youtube client, also with SoundCloud beta support] NewPipe to download tracks manually
[Second official client] Telegram X 0.20.10.967
[Music Player] AIMP 2.70 beta, build 514 (because it is ads free and lightweight, but powerful: supports network & m3u8 playlists playing, also has options like hardware and headset keys functions remap) for user-friendly playlist management
0) most probably it's necessary to delete from
/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/org.thunderdog.challegram/files/music/
the '.nomedia' file
1) create playlist in left sidebar, return to root folder, then browse and select this music folder (the whole folder, not the tracks!) in AIMP adding files dialog
2) if cache contents get updates, just swipe from the top in AIMP playlist, it helps to get newly added cache files from the folder to player's playlist
?) if .nomedia file recreate itself, playlist content may disappear, so try to delete file. If problem occurs again, try to create a folder with the same name instead (.nomedia as folder name) to prevent file recreation
?) probably possible troubles if tracks which you are looking for are saved to music (displayed in saved messages -> audio). Try to delete or not to save the required tracks into saved messages, cache them from public channels instead. Or also add to playlist the folder
/storage/emulated/0/Music
with saved tracks
So now you can get updated playlist by 1 swype
