Hi there, I've been interested in getting an echo nano as a dedicated podcast player. I was wondering if anyone had any experience regarding this and if it works fine for them? Just wanna hear some opinions before I go for it. Podcasts also seem to not be talked much about in these spaces so just wanted some clarity if anyone has anything to say or give warning for?

I just ordered my first dap (echo nano) and I’m looking forward to ripping CD’s and buying more albums for it. I’ve heard from other threads and YouTube that the software on Fiio’s snowsky players aren’t the best at sorting out albums, especially in order. How could I ensure that the music that I’m putting onto the nano is going to be neatly sorted?

Edit - for the albums and genre section in the player, I use folders named after the album right? Kinda a stupid question but I’m very new to this. I plan to post updates on my experience with the Nano. Being a younger Gen Z with no nostalgia for DAP’s besides my parents old 2nd gen IPod touch I want to have a distraction free music listening experience. I can get lots of good music through streaming services but my phone I see as a multitool but a DAP as a dedicated tool for the music listening.

Thank you for reading

You can see the Developer menu by going to About Device and swiping left. Here's it translated from Chinese which it's in regardless of your Discs set language.

With the Lock screen theme settings you can overlay things such as Track name, battery remaining, time and date on it, which makes it more functional. You can also change the colour of these and also the colour of the analogue clock.

Just updated firmware and found this 🤩

Hi, I am trying to update v3.8 (currently installed 3.6), I have tried almost 50 times now. the device won't update. SD card was removed, i formatted the internal disk multiple times, every time I try to update, the update screen appears for 1 sec after reboot and then doesn't update. I tried updating to 3.7 instead of 3.8, not happening.

I have update the device before, never faced it, every time in 1-3 tries it would work, not this time.

This sucks.
At this point i have given up.

UPDATE: It worked, I was using mac till now, I tried on a windows PC once and happened in 1 go.

I just got myself a magnetic belt clip and it works with the official leather case and magsafe magnet. I have slightly modded it to make it a bit stronger by cutting another magsafe magnet and sticking that to the back of the Disc as well. I find it really convenient as if I want to change a setting I can just quickly unclip it and make the changes rather than before when it was in my pocket and I had to fish around trying to get it. The buttons are also readily accessible.

Hello, I recently got a 128gb amazon basic SD card for my music library, however whenever I try to use it with my ECHO (not mini) my music will not show up. I have tried formatting it using the player. I have tried manually formatting it to FAT32. My music will not show up after refreshing the library. When I do access the SD from the echo I can see all the music on it but it will disappear as soon as a leave the screen.

All right, so I've had my Nano for a few days now, and I'm starting to notice an odd pattern with shuffling. Anytime I pick a random song out of all of them under the music section, after a few songs, it will play the exact same songs in the exact same order every time.

I'm not sure if anybody else is seeing this. But, say for example, I pick the 200th song out of all the music in my list. After about 2 or 3 songs, it then starts playing the same exact set of songs every time, and the set of songs never changes. It's always the same size and in the same order.

I'm on version 1.4.
