Refreshing gallery - Why is this not working?

Hello,

Can someone explain what I am doing wrong here?

The image is not showing in my gallery for this method:

This method works and the image does show in the gallery:

//Ignore the if block in both

The image does show in the gallery in the companion, just not in the apk. (forgot to mention)

To add further: The picture for Image1 is a saved canvas image, so the file exists already in the device. I am jus trying to show that saved picture in the users gallery.

Thank you

Its odd because it works fine in the companion.

I have also tried using the component to image extension to save the image as a new file then refresh the file path. This did not work either.

sorry, I do not know why that happens…
you might want to display the result from the Gallery Refresh method in a label to find out, what is going on…
