How do you "cache" songs?

[lukatsivilashvili]

Hi, i guess this question goes to the developers.
Im building a music player of my own for learning/fun purposes, however i have one concern at the moment.
I do not have a caching mechanism for my songs in my app, so everytime i tap the library screen, it takes a second for it look through the mediastore and load everything again. Could you guide as to which part of the code of RetroMusicPlayer handles that problem? i have cloned the repo but still couldnt figure out what steps i need to take to achieve that seamless effect that this app has. Thanks in advance

There's no cache system in Retro for the library, every time the app starts it reads the MediaStore again.

Yes, i know about the app start, but does it read from mediastore every time you switch pages?

Well, that's the ViewModel doing the caching.
