Description
A tiny tool to hide multimedia files and prevent media scanning. Touch and hold the directory to toggle. Media library will not display the files in red colored folders.

The Android media scanner ignores folders containing an empty file named ".nomedia", using less time, battery and memory.
This app identifies folders, creates and deletes .nomedia files, refresh the media library and stops or restores the media scanning.

Usecases:
- show pictures to someone else and avoid that he can see some embarrassing
- filter undesired ringtones, music and other files used by some apps and games
- shorten the long media scanning triggered at boot when your phone is full of media files
- fix files disappearing from the media library but shown in a file manager

Features:
- list of all folders containing .nomedia files
- force scanning recursively
- recursive mark of subfolders is possible
- .noscanandnomtp files from CyanogenMod
- lightweight and minimalistic

Notes:
- rescan (toggle twice) for newly added files to hidden directories
- for some devices, can't write on external SD card

Comments on Nomedia for Android

★★★★★ My gallery was picking up thumbnails over and over again. This app stopped it all!!!! It was coming from many files in Androids data folder, not the dcim folder. Now I can school the gallery without all the junk!!! Finally, a simple fix!!!
★★★★★ Work perfectly removed all the no media files from folders it was taking up space
★★☆☆☆ I just tired ur app and nothing says it's working so far nothing so far I'll give it time let u know more in 2 hours it's 552pm my time here in Hampton va I'm a beta tester so if it works great but if not I'll let u know.
★★☆☆☆ Doesn't work on some hidden files I'm still finding apps and then reappearing uninstall that
★★☆☆☆ I just couldn't get this app to work. There is no way to get into the preferences. I found it easier to simply create the no media file manually.
