Embedded Files
Hi there! I’m Daniel, the developer of Sonora.
First off, thank you so much for trying out the app — I built Sonora because I wanted a local music player that gave users more control over the UI.
This page is here to help you get the most out of the app. If you have any questions, feedback, or run into a bug, feel free to reach out — I’d love to hear from you.

Go to Library Settings and Tap on Update Library. If you imported your music with the Files app check if your music files have complete metadata information. Sonora relies on the title and album metadata tags to correctly identify and organize songs.

Q: How do I import music into Sonora?
Use the in-app importer (recommended)
Go to Library Settings
Choose a folder (and any subfolders) with your music
Sonora will scan all folders and list the supported files (MP3, FLAC, AIFF, M4A)
You can review the results before confirming the import
Enable Auto-Update to populate the albums list immediately after each import, or use the Update Library button manually
Tip: The importer will warn you if any files are missing key metadata like title or album — those won’t show up in the albums list.
