I am currently using the Samsung Galaxy S7 running Nougat. The problem is that when I go into my gallery from my camera app photos appear from other folders that are in my sd card. How would I fix this issue. I just want photos that I took with my camera to show up.
You can go to the folder you want to hide in gallery and make a new file named .nomedia
Folder should now be excluded from mediascan and be invisible in gallery.

My problem is that i'm using another app than the camera to capture video and pictures into the DCIM folder. Thus Android doesn't pickup new pics and video in the DCIM folder.
to fix this, I need to run "dev tools > media provider > scan sd card" to fresh. or reboot he phone to force a refresh each time. Then i'm able to see everything in gallery etc...
Is there a way to force this media scan to happen every 1hr? ie in the build.prop or something? I do have root access..
thanks.
A simple solution would be to use QuickPic. It's better than the stock gallery app in all aspects imho
+1 for QuickPic
I have a problem with my gallery, before when I take a photo or video and not show up on my gallery.
I tried to clear cache, and restart my tab. After that I tried to open gallery and now my gallery was blank. But if I take new photo or video, it can be show on my gallery (only new photos or videos). I check with file manager, my old pictures and videos still at my memory internal and SD card. And still not show on my gallery. I tried 3rd party app gallery and result still same.
Anyone has same problem like me? I try to find solution, but still can't found it
How do I make it not show all photos from other apps in the gallery? Before lollipop, only photos taken with camera app were shown there.

You can try other gallery apps, or you can create a ".nomedia" file with the archive in the folders with the photos you want to hide.
Hello guys,
Today I got a strange error which I am pretty sure that worked yesterday and before. In my google photos app, I cannot see screenshots folder anymore, instead screenshots are in the Camera folder together with camera photos. I checked and both folders are in DCIM folder on a system, separated, one is "Camera" and one is "Screenshots" folder, but in the app, they are together in one "camera" folder.
In the gallery app, everything works fine, I just want to sync Camera album and not Camera+screenshots album on my drive.
Thanks
No one still?
Hi everyone,
1. In Samsung Gallery, how to remove the Albums and Stories button (tab)?
2. [WhatsApp\Media\WhatsApp Images\Sent] this location images should it auto show up in Samsung Gallery app? I notice they do not show up. I notice if I take a photo and photo appear in DCIM folder and then I select the photo and send photo to my whatsapp friend, immediately a copy of the photo appeared automatically in [WhatsApp\Media\WhatsApp Images\Sent]" folder, at this point i can see the photo in Gallery, after this point i delete the photo from my DCIM folder and i no longer see the photo in Gallery, photo in [WhatsApp\Media\WhatsApp Images\Sent] not deleted.
Thanks.
