Features & Capabilities

AZ Media Rescan is a powerful Chrome extension that allows users to scan and refresh all media files including audio, video, and images from both internal device storage and SD card storage. It helps users resolve issues where media files may not appear correctly in apps by performing a comprehensive media rescan. Additionally, it offers functionality related to the '.nomedia' file, enabling users to hide media files from other applications by adding or removing this file in directories.

This extension is especially useful for Android device users who want to manage their media visibility effectively; however, the addition or removal of '.nomedia' files in the SD card is currently not supported. AZ Media Rescan requires storage permissions to access media files and provides a simple interface to refresh media libraries, ensuring media files appear as expected across applications.

Installed, said it scanned, and then it just sat there. No settings, nothing.
