I have two screens. MainScreen
and Playlist
. MainScreen
has a RecycleView
method added that displays list of items. These items are created from folder names(directories). I want the files inside each folder(directories) to open on the Playlist
Screen depending on which directory name is clicked.
I intend to clear the screen immediately after the user leaves the screen.
