im not sure there is any real point unless theres a device too stupid to know when a new file was added and automatically count it in the list (sounds like some devices werent thought up carefully but whatever). as for my device anytime a new file is added its automatically counted  which is odd for a piece of garbage device like mine. the external storage is auto-scanned anyway upon mounting so this app seems pointless to me  but it is fun to goof off with so ill give that much. in any case my only problem is that despite specifying the directory (external) it still scans the internal. but it also scans the external as well. now if we can get it to only scan the specified and not the other as well (if the file path is /sdcard0 it should only scan sdcard0  if its sdcard1 to only scan sdcard1 - not both). also we should also be allowed to not put /storage/ or /mnt/ before .... if i want to only put /sdcard0/ it should scan even though /storage/ wasnt added. the reason is because it should already know the /storage/ (or /mnt/) part so we shouldnt have to specify that in the directory. just where its going from there.
