Playback
Resume playback
Pick up exactly where you left off, even after closing the app.
Introduction
Stow remembers where you stopped — especially for long-form audio. Open a track again and pick up where you left off.

How it works
- Stow saves position automatically as you listen.
- Short previews (under ~30 seconds) don't count as “resume points.”
- Near the end of a file, Stow starts fresh next time.
Steps
- Listen to part of a podcast, audiobook, or long MP3.
- Stop or switch tracks.
- Later, play the same track again — playback resumes from your saved position.
Tips
- Resume is always on — no setting required.
- Library backup includes resume points (organization data, not audio files).
