Many people complained that gallery app sometimes don't see all files (photos, video etc..), for example here:
https://together.jolla.com/question/54792/media-does-not-refresh/
Or Camera rotate you image when you take pic in portrait mode:

My app just use this simple command for refresh tracker-control:
tracker-control -es
It will clears the tracker database and re-index all media..

USAGE:
* Just press on the icon and wait for notification (python needed).
* Open Gallery app and wait few minutes until it will load all your media.
* Log file you can see in your nemo directory: /home/nemo/trackercontrolref.log

Very handy, especially as Jolla have yet to sort out the bug ridden mediaplayer in 1.1.0.39.
I know I can empty the cache using Sailfish Tools from Settings menu, but your app gives a launcher icon which is easily accessible, I like that.
