Fallman,
MobileSheets doesn't currently automatically scan and import new files that are detected in the storage location because there is not a one-to-one correlation between files and songs in MobileSheets. A single song can have multiple PDFs in it, or you could have a song with 8 image files, for example. So if MobileSheets just scanned for files that aren't currently in the library and created new songs from them, that could potentially lead to scenarios where that is not desired, especially if users are managing their own files and folders and may have files they don't want in their library. Having said that, I may support an option like this in the future for users that change the storage location and want a one-to-one relationship between files and songs.
If you uncheck the option to let MobileSheets manage your files, then you can just perform a batch import of the same folder every time you add new files and if the "Avoid duplicate songs" option is checked, MobileSheets should ignore files that have already been imported. If you prefer to do this over importing individual files, then it may work for your needs. Alternatively, just tap Import->Local File and then select the new PDFs to import into the library.
