Hi!

I'm attempting to use the MusicBee wifi sync on my phone for the first time. For literally every song so far (I lost patience at around 30), a message pops up with the album art and the text "allow musicbee wifi sync to modify this audio file?" and "deny", "allow" options.

This is not sustainable for a library full of 52k songs. Is there a way around this? As far as I know, I have granted all permissions.

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure you're -not- using the latest version of the WiFi Sync app as this was an issue a while ago and was addressed.

EDIT: clarification

Download the latest MusicBee v3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

I have debugged and confirmed this on an Android 14 device.
The problem was reproduced by removing “Music and audio” from the app's permissions.
With permissions granted, this does not happen and the file is updated without prompting.
Please review the app permissions again. You can turn MusicBee Wifi Sync permissions on and off by going to Settings and selecting the app without clearing the cache or storage.
Note that the check was done with app version 2.8.1.
