Nomedia g(x) labs

The Nomedia app creates NOMEDIA files, which tell media scanners to ignore specific folders, hiding redundant and useless files from places like the Gallery, Music Player, and Video Player. The application can also scan your device's media files and update them in the store if necessary so that you can view them in the gallery and music players.

What is a NOMEDIA file?

A NOMEDIA file is a hidden file that tells media scanner apps, such as the Gallery and Music Player, to ignore specific folders. By hiding these folders, you can reduce the number of redundant files on your device while protecting important ones. This can free up valuable space on your device and help speed up performance.

How to use the app

The NOMEDIA app is a straightforward way to start using the NOMEDIA service. To use it, open the app, enter your credentials and log in.

Once logged in, you will see a list of your files stored on NOMEDIA. You can filter by date range, file type, and size. You can also sort by name or size to find something specific quickly. To scan a folder or file, choose your objects and select the scanning option. The app will scan your media files, including photos, videos, and music. It then will categorize them by folder and allow you to decide which folders should be scanned by the MediaStore and which should not.

Conclusions

The app is straightforward and doesn't require complicated settings or configurations. It is a good option if you just want to quickly hide some folders from the MediaStore and have them scanned only when needed, like when you need to play specific music files in your favorite player app.
