You can use this way to create album in Gallery app. The name appears as 'app images'. String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString(); File dir = new File(path, "/appname/media/app images/"); if (!dir.isDirectory()) { dir.mkdirs(); } File file = new File(dir, filename + ".jpg"); String imagePath = file.getAbsolutePath(); //scan the image so show up in album MediaScannerConnection.scanFile(this, new String[] { imagePath }, null, new MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener() { public void onScanCompleted(String path, Uri uri) { if(Config.LOG_DEBUG_ENABLED) { Log.d(Config.LOGTAG, "scanned : " + path); } } });
