I don’t think that is possible currently…
Unfortunately, You can’t upload a file that’s not a photo or video
in your case an audio file… The only way to play an audio file that’s not included in
the app is to get it from a URL By asking the user What is the URL of the song you want to play?
Once the user inputs this then the app will get the audio file from the specified link and then play it…
For example the url can be this [https://www.myinstants.com/media/sounds/untitled\_3.mp3](https://www.myinstants.com/media/sounds/untitled_3.mp3)

You can easily use an html page and use the file tag to get the URL and pass it back to Thunkable using the Web Viewer extension.

Actually, I want to make an app where you amplify the audio and also save those recordings…so I came to know how to record and play the audio but when I use local storage to save the recording it’s not working I don’t know why and how to add external code to amplify the audio?
