Store listing
By Andreas Kromke, from Google Play“Auxiliary program for "Opus 1 Music Player" and "Unpopular Music Player"”
Description by Andreas Kromke Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Contrary to the Classical Music Scanner, the SAF Media Scanner exclusively uses Google's Storage Access Framework (SAF), thus allowing access to media not available via the standard methods (like USB storage with older Android versions or generally network shares).
Technically expressed, the program needs an "SAF Document Provider" with "Open Document Tree" resp. "FLAG_SUPPORTS_IS_CHILD" support. Note that especially Google Drive does not support tree access, while e.g. SMB and Nextcloud clients do.
As this is expected to be a niche product usable only for a few users there has not been any localisation done yet (except English).
The program is open source and ad-free.
