How to Update Auralys Without Losing a Single Playlist
How Auralys updates work: installing over the top, what carries across, and the checks to run after any new build lands on your phone.

Updating auralys Apk should be a non event: a few minutes, then your playlists, favourites and sound settings exactly where you left them. This note explains how to keep it that way, and what to verify in the first listen after an update.
The rule that protects everything is simple: install over the top, never remove first.
Install over the top
Fetch the new build the same way as the first install and install it directly over the existing app. Android treats it as the same app growing, and its data, your playlists, favourites, automatic list history and settings, carries across untouched. Removing the app first throws that data away for no benefit.
If an over the top install is refused, fetch the file again in full. A partial download refuses politely; the working copy already on your phone should stay exactly where it is meanwhile.
After the update: the three checks
First, open your longest playlist and confirm the order survived, it will. Second, play one track in each format family you own, MP3 and FLAC at least, to confirm the library is whole. Third, check your equalizer preset is the one you left. tips for after the update helps if a sound check raises questions.
Give Recently Added a glance too. It should show your library as it was, not a flood of rescanned old files.
When waiting is fine
There is no prize for updating in the first hour. If your current build plays perfectly and you are mid trip with no backup of your library, update when you are home. An offline player that works is never an emergency.
That is the shape of it. The rest is listening: put a familiar record on, apply one idea from this note at a time, and let the player prove itself in the sessions you actually have. If you want to keep going, the full install walkthrough is the natural next read.
Quick Answers
Will updating delete my playlists?
No. Installing over the existing app keeps playlists, favourites and settings. Removing the app first is what puts them at risk.
The update install was refused. What should I do?
Fetch the file again in full and retry over the top. Do not uninstall the working copy to force it.
Do automatic lists reset after an update?
No. Most Played, Favorites and Recently Added history carries across with the app data.
Should I update immediately?
Only if you want to. A working offline player can wait until you are home with a backup nearby.
