Failed to play next songs issues after RAM memory clearing

[superivanho]

My phone is Xiaomi Pocophone F1 6Gb version. Everytime when I clear background memory from task manager halfway listening to music through Poweramp, Poweramp will continue to play the current song until the end. Then it stops right after the current music is finished. Poweramp will then say it can't play any songs from my phone, even the app can still detect music on my phone storage.

To continue to play music from Poweramp I have to manually close down the app, then restart it again. Then same issues continue to happen whenever I clear background apps through task manager.

I don't find any memory clearing issues with other apps and other music player on my phone, except on Poweramp. Since Poweramp is my beloved music app I hope the dev team can look into this. Many thanks.

Not sure what you mean by "clear background apps". Do you mean using a task killer of some sort, or clearing the Recent Apps list? Neither of those should be necessary though, as Androidn handle memory management and loads and unloads apps as needed.

Hi Andre,

Yes you're correct. What I meant was clearing the recent app list.

I can get Poweramp working when using my older Redmi note 4Gb ram version, but when I use Poweramp on this new 6Gb ram phone, I encounter the issue I described above.

Then stop doing that, as it could force-close apps which might be running without allowing them to save their state, You shouldn't ever need to do it anyway, unless you have some very specific reason such as a locked-up app.
