I just downloaded this app called Gaana. It's an Indian music app that allows you to download and listen to music. I want to play music downloaded from this app with other music apps (shuttle+). But I can't find the directory where it is saving all the songs. Can someone tell me where this app is saving all the music?
Songs caching on Gaana
When you download songs on Gaana app, they are stored on the device but are DRM protected so they are accessible only from Gaana application. You cannot take them out of Gaana app.

There is no way around this?
Do This.....
Gaana allow us to play the downloaded songs in their app only...But we can change this and can get downloaded files
Open ES File Explorer and enable Show hidden files ON ....
go to ANDROID/data/com.gaana
U will find one folder files open that
They are your downloaded files .........
Select one file by long holding ,,then mark all by using select all(top right coener tick mark) option and tap RENAME(below) in that select "rename extension name" type .mp3 and hit OK and u can move all these files to a folder wherever u want
now you can play this files in ur default player ..
But the problem is in ur player u wont see the names and album arts for these songs n it'll be PIUA I hope I helped u:angel::good:
Theres an app by Airtel called Wynk Music which you should also check out for listening free, they seem to have whatever I search for (and not just Hindi)
But you cannot download songs unless you purchase which I haven't tried. If you are on Airtel you can make a song your hello tune too.

Hi,
the location is accurate. this is where it used to be. but i think they have now upgraded the app and changed the location.
i tried searching all the folders but i could not find the files now.
has any one else been successful getting the files then please share the location.
how to identify drm files in wynk app, I think I have the location but I am not able to copy or rename any of the file.
Any updates guys?
Need Rooted Now
Now file are in root folder. All you need is rooted device and app call "root explorer". Go on youtube and get your device rooted. Files are in root-data-data-com.gaana-files
These files are saved in the form of numeric numbers. Copy them on your pc or just play on your device using player. Solid drawback is you need to rename all song names because numbers are given to the files.
Im using upgraded only

FOUND SUCCESSFULLY (IN MY ROOTED DEVICE).!
GET UR DEVICE ROOTED. OPEN ES FILE EXPLORER & GET THE ROOT PERMISSION (i.e. turn on the root access) & ALSO TURN ON THE 'SHOW HIDDEN FILES ' OPTION. NOW GO TO SDCARD->ANDROID ->DATA-> COM.GAANA->FILES. THAT'S IT!!!! THERE YOU WILL FIND ALL THE SONGS WHICH ARE ONLY NUMBERED :victory:

and you are good to go.

I tried it and there is nothing in that folder. Gave it roote permission and hidden files and still nothing there.
can location be set to external sd card?
This works fine. Found the files. could rename and play on device media player.
But this app eats up internal memory. Is there any way to move the storage to External SD card?
memory usage app

I had the same issue for my MOTO G.
My problem was, I downloaded around 250mb of songs through the app but could not play it in the music player other than the app!
Solution:
Download an app named "Memory Usage" and see which folder is consuming big size. Open it and see each file size ( normally 4-6 mb) to confirm its the same folder used by the app for songs storage
>>find your folder and extract it through es explorer.
Just follow the other user's comments for extraction
Thanks
Thanks for the help. Did find the file in Android/ Data/ com.gana/files with help of EZ exlporer.

thanks buddy... my phone is not rooted still found the files here...
Android/ Data/ com.gana/files
with the help of "es explorer" ofcourse... In ES explorer, setting choose "show hidden files"... than it finds the file numbered files there...
To find it via PC cable though you have to rename the ".gaana" folder to "gaana" folder via "es explorer" only.... thanks hope this helps
Hey I was wondering if there is any app, or any way to get the images from apps? An example, I wanna make a website wiki of a card game. I need the card images.
Bump!

For some reason some of the APKs do not have all the images in the APK file. I think some of these apps download a whole bunch more stuff after installing T_T. Now I need to find that and see whats up.

Then you can probably find it with a file explorer by app data....
You might need root for this.
I am not sure what i am saying
If you have the apk file you can easily decompress it.
Just rename the apk to zip and open it with winrar.
