Android users are aware of the problem with their downloads. Where did he go? Did I just download a virus? What happened to my download? Music, data and photos are the most downloaded items on an Android phone. If you love music, this location issue could be an even bigger problem for you.
With that, here are some solutions on how to locate the files you have downloaded using Amazon Music:
They can be hidden files
Many aspects of your Android phone depend on “hidden files”. Many Android users report locating their Amazon Music in hidden folders as hidden files.
By using the “Show hidden files” option, you can see that it is on your SD card as a hidden file:
/mnt/extSdCard/Android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music
Check your Amazon Music app settings
You need to check your application settings. This is how you know where the basic folder is. How do you do that
- Open your Amazon Music app.
- Check in the menu where you will find the parameters.
- Click on Settings which is the gear.
- You should find the option to open the storage location.
- You should find an internal or external option.
If the set is External, you will find your files in Card Android Media com.Amazon.mp3
If it is internal, you will find your files in

Location may also depend on your phone
One thing that you should also consider is your type of phone. There are different phone file locations that you should consult.
Here are some examples of common locations by phone type:
For a Galaxy S5 with Android Marshmallow / 6.x, most users should use a My Files manager so that they can easily locate files.
For Google Pixel users, the location is often on Pixel / Android / data / com.amazon.mp3 / files / Music
For people who are using a Samsung Galaxy s6 Edge, you can find your .m4a files in the following location:
My files> Device storage> Android> Data> com.amazon.mp3> files> Music
It is also possible to use a file manager. To do this, you can use “My Files” to launch the file explorer on the device. You will then need to choose from the drop down menu to find the music you are looking for.
If you have an HTC 610 Desire, it’s very likely that your Amazon music files are stored on your SD card. If you have purchased entire albums, the location of your folder is as follows:
