#3 - Reading Audio Files From Device - Music Player With Expo React Native - Part 1 

Are you using emulator or physical device? Try using physical device only.

If you follow this tutorial from day one then I have already told you guys about this, but let me tell you again. To render audio list inside this app we are using RecyclerListView component insted of FlatList or ScrollView component and using class component makes easy to work with RecyclerListView component but if you want to use FlatList or ScrollView component insted of RecyclerListView component then you can go with functional component as well. And I found lots of guys are confused between class and functional components I think I should make a video about it.

@@fsniraj thank you for your quick response. Yes please make a separate video on this. There isn't any video on youtube about this when we should use which component.

@@fsniraj I think it can be done with functional component

I don't know the exact solution but I hope you may find your solution here docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/filesystem/

​@@fsniraj ok. I'll try. Thanks

@@fsniraj I build karaoke tracks playing app for my degree project. I am following your media-player tutorial series for build this app.

Nice to hear that brother, best of luck.

for this you need to connect your app to the expo and only then you will see this, it's a response while device asks to read media files. watch previos videos from this series if you want to know more.

@@fsniraj thank you so much

Maybe that is because of you denied permission from the expo go app. You can clear the storage and cache from app info setting. Press and hold on your expo go app and press on app info and clear cache and clear storage, if you are using android.

@@fsniraj thanks for reply.. I will try and let u know...

@@fsniraj i have clear cache then it not working, then clear data still not working....

i have uninstalled and install again then first time i have called .getPermissionAsync is response, Object { "canAskAgain": true, "expires": "never", "granted": false, "status": "undetermined", } then called requestPermissionAsync there is no pop but in log it's showing Object { "canAskAgain": false, "expires": "never", "granted": false, "status": "undetermined", } this result, i think expo automatically denying......

Can you send me the GitHub repo link on @ndpniraj instagram

Sorry I don't know what FLAC is check out the expo-av documentation for more.

@@fsniraj thanks for your quick response. yes I have checked expo-av document but don't get exact answer.

Don't know bro sorry.

react-native-track-player. That is instead of expo-av

ok you are talking about music streaming apps like spotify. we will see that in future.

@@fsniraj Yes, like spotify, but spotify is too complicated interface, I would like to see the same interface as in your application that you are doing now

Yah I know but you can read this post here I mentioned briefly why I am using class components dev.ndpniraj.com/react-native-audio-player/
