Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Encrypt File Free can encrypt and protect photos, videos, audios, pictures, doc, ppt, xls, pdf and other files using a password. This app can encrypt and lock all file types such as private photos and videos, confidential office documents (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc) and any other files for they can not be opened or viewed by others. The encrypted file can only be opened with the correct password. This application has two modes of encryption: Automatic: Use master password to encrypt / decrypt the files. Manual: You must enter a password to encrypt / decrypt each file. There are two folders: Encrypted: It stores the decrypted files. Decrypted: It stores the encrypted files. Keep in mind: - The encrypted files are saved in the same folder as the source file after encryption, except when the files are encrypted in the 'Decrypted' folder. - The encrypted files in the 'Decrypted' folder are saved directly in the 'Encrypted' folder. - The decrypted files in the 'Encrypted' folder are saved directly in the 'Decrypted' folder. - You can change the settings of the application from the 'Options' menu. Encrypt your files and not just hide them. This solution is better and safer than simply hiding files. The available languages are English, French and Spanish.

Encrypt File Free APK: questions and answers

Is there a version of Encrypt File Free for older Android phones?

The current version needs Android 4.0 or later. Version 1.0.9 is the newest listed build that installs on Android 2.3 and later. It is an old build: apps that rely on online services may no longer connect when they are this old. Get version 1.0.9 · All versions

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 Encrypt File Free APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. It is signed with the same certificate as the other version checked. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 6036e9bf99955ad8ca26dd431d2aeb71.
