Description

From the listing uploaded by “toncat266”.

Deleting a file or directory does not remove the contents. Recovery tools can be used to restore the previous content. AndroShredder allows to permanently destroy file contents and wipe previously used storage space, so that secret data can't be restored even by advanced recovery tools. You can schedule tasks like wipe, shred, clear clipboard to run at a specific interval in background. AndroShredder has been tested against several data recovery tools. None of them were able to recover data that was cleaned by AndroShredder. Features + Can act as a share target, send files to AndroShredder e.g. from your camera or file manager app + Select multiple files and directories to shred + Search for pictures, videos or other file types + Can preview files before deletion (also PDF documents) + Cleans nested folders and their content + Clean (wipe) free space on any writable storage device (SSD cards, Hard Disks, USB flash drives etc.) + Tested against various recovery tools + Schedule tasks to run at a specific interval in background

Andro Shredder APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Andro Shredder APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 45498209fed4cabf00ce5736d35d20c4.
