Rescan Media

Probably the most useful app I have. Doesn't require anything additional. No ads. Just simple two clicks and all your new files are synced with your phone. My Galaxy Note 2 started glitching (when I export music from Dropbox, songs don't appear in my Music player). This app solved this annoying problem within 5 seconds. Love and recommend it.

this app keeps crashing on my Samsung Galaxy Avant. it immediately keeps crashing and shuts itself down. can you please fix this problem? I had it on my LG Optimus F3 and had no problems with it. I would very much appreciate it

This tool is very useful if I use FTP software to put music or pictures on my phone or tablet. Not all file transfer utilities remember to call the Android media scanner when they're done, and I can't play music or see the pictures until the media scanner picks them up. It also works on Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean. They just don't display when they are rescanning media like Gingerbread and below did.

Doesn't require any special permissions to install, and immediately forces a media rescan when it's run. Couldn't have asked for better. (Nexus 7, Jellybean)

I thought I was going insane, I could not get google music to read the new files spent 2 hours looking 4 a way to fix this and found this wonderful app. Again thank you very much

I'm a developer and I find it hard to believe that this app fails to work on any version of android or on any phone. The app doesn't actually do the scan itself, it tells android to do it. That is why it requires no special permissions. And the rating is not for what you want thte app to be or do its to let others know if it does what it says and if it does it well or not. That's why 5. Because this app does exactly what it says. And does it perfectly.

Worked like a charm on my HTC Droid DNA when it had Jelly Bean, and made listening to daily podcasts on my phone a treat. We got the lovely KitKat update the other day and now this app no longer works. It force closes without doing anything. Bummer.

I'm using BitTorrent Sync to sync my devices. The only problem I had so far was that I had to reboot all of my devices for the gallery to scan for new files. Thanks to your app all I need to do now is tap it's icon. The auto-close feature is great. Thank you!

I love this app. It works awesomely (that should be a real word). Except it doesn't work on my new LG Lucid 3 with Kitkat 4.4.2. It just crashes with a dialog that says it had to close. Make it work on 4.4.2 and I'll give you one more star! :)

I'm glad that there is an automatic close option included, but a widget would be nicer so that I can still open the app to change settings. I'm glad this app exists, but I wish it didn't have to. It remedies a problem android should have fixed by now.

Phone was actin up, said I couldn't do anything until scanning. Bit every time I rebooted my phone, the media scanner wouldn't kick in. I got this app and it's working wonders

When my media manager's problem occurred I decided to reset factory ..But this one solved all its problems in just a second. ..:-D

It works fine but after use more the softwere eject sd card automaticaly... The softwere gives command as eject & re-insert sd card, if it's programming complaints it will destroy ur sd

Solves the problem of poorly coded apps that do not call the scanner after creating media (I'm looking at you, Camera Zoom FX...)

This app makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. Fixes the "I can't listen to the songs I just downloaded in Winamp until I restart or remount" problem. And the autoclose option. Beautiful. Perfect.

The app couldn't be simpler, and the results couldn't be more successful. After copying my Ringtones/ and Notifications/ to several locations on the SD card without success, I tried this app. Using OS Monitor, I could see that "Download Manager" (aka. Media Scanner) woke up and started processing for 5-10 minutes. I now see all of my ringtones and notifications (in triplicate; my own fault). Thank you!

However, it doesn't work at all with my KitKat devices. I'd recommend looking for a different rescan-media app for any Android versions from 4.3 onward.

This is exactly what I've needed sometimes the LG Esteem doesn't scan your media. Usually I had to always rebooted my phone to fix and unfortunately that kills your battery a whole lot. This lets me skip that step. 5 stars thank you for this app.

HTC One X had major issue with Media not showing in album after connecting USB on the go mem stick. This application resolved my issue in just 2 mins. Keep up the good work folks...

I deleted all of my media, but strangely all of my media was still displayed in default music app but not playable. Driving me nuts. This fixed it!

Wiped all the artists names from the media files in Winamp android. I now have over 2000 songs with no artist names! Not happy!

It didn't update my media player library. It needs deep scan or through scan option. I'm sticking with it for at least next update.

I am using LG G2. The app was working great in Android 4.2 when the media wasn't refreshed. Since the upgrade to 4.4, it crashes every time and actually was not needed anymore. Thank you.

Doesn't really provide details whether its successfully forced the system to refresh... so can't really say its working properly...

My HTC g2 kept losing my pics. This app fixed the problem. 'Nuff said.

Doesn't do anything. When I open this app come it immediately closes. Droid Razr Maxx

I love my Galaxy Note 2. And it works %99 since the day I bought it. But since it's final update to Kitkat (4.6.0), the media system fails to update when I download a new picture or video. Therefore, this app makes up for it.

why does each uploading site second guess my file system? Iknow where my pics are, i dont need a site to make a guess. i dont need to see (almost) every pic. Not the fault of this App ... it shouldnt be necessary

Can't see a progress bar. So cant even tell if its working or how long it may take. I only tryed this app as some one suggested it may fix my camera fault on Samsung galaxy s2. But obviously it did not make any difference as this app is 100% useless.

I have tried to install it twice and just does not work. Just says it stopped working when I try to launch. It literally never worked once

I don't hate it. It gets 1 star so I can say it Stopped working on Samsung Galaxy Note 2, possibly since Android update 4.4.2

This used to be a good app, but now it literally doesn't do a single thing. Uninstalled and would never recommend to anyone. Inb4 user error. Several of my friends got this app too and it does the same thing for them; that being nothing.

Images started to show an exclamation Mark error and I was no longer able to open them to view. 10 seconds after installing media rescan, all the photos showed up again

I love love like this app. It does exactly what its supposed to and now I don't have to restart my phone to scan media.

Works like a charm. Does as the author says. No frigging advertisements! Use this shortcut to the stock media scanner, or reboot your phone. This is much faster.

Excelente aplicación. Tenía un problema que mi SE XPro había dejado de reconocer mis imágenes y mi música, me decía que mi galería estaba vacía. Usé este programa y adiós al problema. Lo tendré cerca de mí por si acaso. Excelente y no requiere ningún permiso especial.

my g2 kept making pics and vids disapear. This fixed the problem and all the pics I was looking for returned to the gallery. Great app!

This does what it does without any intrusions. Simplicity is indeed the way to go. Especially handy for when having renamed media files. Thank you.
