Description
If you just transferred some media files to your device and they are not showing in the database(galleries, music players...) Media Scanner could help you. Media Scanner forces Android to do a full media scan based at the path you chose and then it updates Android Media Store database with the new items. So basically this application will search for all media files on your device and update your Android media store. Updating media store will fix some of your applications which can't see your media files. This problem is most seen on Android KitKat.

Thank you!!!!! My media scanner stopped working last week and after resetting my phone twice it kept having the same issue. After going through numerous apps and tricks this app finally did the job.

Works great even on Lollipop The full-screen ads are annoying though, fortunately I use the app only once a week or so

Damn.... Don't waste time on this app guys.. I installed this app only for the music library issue. Since the very first scan my gallery item got doubled... Hell.. Searching another app to fix the Gallery problem now. However the music library issue fixed though. Thanks..

is this for devs? I have to know the path by name to scan in a different directory than the default one. when I do change the path the app searches in the default directory anyway.... no way to stop the scan. full screen ad.
