Description

From the listing uploaded by “split-store”.

Data Sanitizer is a simple tool that implements the Russian GOST R 50739-95 method to remove data remanence, it overwrites the free disk space to insure that no recoverable data is left behind. Data Sanitizer is optimized for speed and uses the system's resources heavily, therefore it is strongly recommended NOT to use the phone while the app is running. The app is easy to use, just download and run (preferably after a factory reset).

Data Sanitizer 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 Data Sanitizer 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 af24bf5c910dff4ef1c06f577cb029c2.
