About Encryption Manager Lite

Encryption Manager is a file manager, that offers a comfortable and secure way to keep files with confidential data encrypted using AES or Twofish encryption.

A master password is both used to access the application and to encrypt the encryption keys, that are generated random for each file, that is managed by Encryption Manager. Confidential files are accessible directly after the login. With one click on the file, the file is decrypted to its original location and can be shown by the installed viewer or editor apps. When you are finished working with the decrypted copy, the file is re-encrypted with one click and the decrypted file is wiped from the SD card. This wipe process will overwrite the data with random bytes before the file is deleted. So even if the device is lost or stolen, it is not possible to access your confidential data.

Encrypting new files is very simple: they can be chosen either with the built-in file manager or by simply using "send/share" from another app.

Features:
* Access based on master pin or master text password.
* Encrypts all kind of files.
* Possibility to encrypt all files of a folder.
* Provides a special handling for images, e.g. removal/creation of gallery thumbnail images.
* Base functionality of a file manager (view on click, send/share menu), but with automatic decryption before the action.
* Offers AES and Twofish encryption with 128 and 256 bit keys.
* Displays icons to indicate whether a file is currently decrypted or was changed.
* User setting for automatic re-encryption on exit.
* Secure overwrite of the orginal file after the encryption.
* An additional anti file recovery tool is included.
* Two layout modes: flat list view or hierarchical folder view.
* Filters can be defined to filter SD card files by file extensions or to excluded folders.
* The master password can be changed for an existing database.
* Provides a comfortable backup mechanism for using cloud storage (Dropbox, Google Drive, ...) to save the encrypted files
* The app can be configured to delete all managed files after 7 unsuccessful attempts.
* Has an "Exit" menu on all screens, that finishes the task completely.
* App is locked (master password must be re-entered), when there is no user input for configurable period.
* Includes english help pages.

Languages:
* English
* German
* French
* Russian
* Spanish

Limitations:
* The "lite" version is limited to 5 encrypted files!
* The full version has no limitations.

I installed this app for the features. Encrypting multiple files with only one password entry and integration with send to menu sound awesome. But only numbers are allowed for master password. I hate remembering a bunch of numbers. So this app was not usable for me.

C70%
by C####:

The functionality to delete a file on after encryption isn't working. I had to delete the image file manually from the gallery. While this isn't a major issue, would be great if that feature worked and the file was original file was automatically shredded, opposed to just being deleted. On the plus side, the UI is nowhere near as offensive as the SSE app. Not sure if I will cough up the dollars for the full version though while this app is still buggy...

by D####:

but love the support for pics! Just go to your gallery and hit Share. Encryption Manager will be one of the choices. One problem - just make sure you hit Exit from within the app or it will stay running in the background and anyone who goes to the gallery and shares a pic to the app will be able to view your encrypted files without having to log in! Dev, please fix! Other than that, very strong encryption, and LOVE the limited permissions! No unlimited network access like all others!

Unable to find a way to encrypt folders in /emmc, where external sd is mounted.

by D####:

Can't select the external (removable) SD card. Needs to be able to select the directory you want to work in. There is new file management to this.

D70%
by D####:

Useless app. Gives long list of hundreds of files and leaves you to scroll them and choose files to encrypt. Ridiculous!

Couldn't hide jpg files, txt files didn't open again, just numeric password,... deinstalled.

D70%
by D####:

Best app I found so far. Other apps just hide files in hidden folder or the ones that really claim to encrypt files request insane amount of permissions. I like the fact that this one don't have internet permission, just SDCard, only thing that in must have.

D70%
by D####:

Overall a very good app. File management is smooth and nearly seamless with other apps. Transparency works very well. The ONE thing I don't like is that if you decrypt a file it isn't put back in it's original source folder-which it should be. I actually still can't locate the decrypted test file, it's not in the folder the details option says it should be. Either put it back where you got it or ask me where I want it.

D70%
by D####:

Get real. Just slap a $ on it and call it done. This only encrypts 5 files. That"s so lame, you may as well just be honest & charge up front. Either that or increase the free file encryption to at least 20 before charging people.

I used this app to encrypt a file using my s3 a few months ago and i stored it in a blank sd card. Now, i installed this app to my s4 and i inserted the sd card in which i put the encrypted file in hopes to decrypt it coz i need to use it but it can't find it. Help please.

Encrypt All option is available. But I am not able to decrypt all files in one click. Suppose I encrypted 50 files in a folder, to decrypt them i need to select the files one by one, which means i need to click 50 times. For lesser files its fine. Please provide a "decrypt all" option (MicroMax A110)

Well written but doesn't offer in-place encryption of files, takes the "vault" approach instead (stashing them in one location).Don't like that design

E70%
by E####:

The interface is like a step back in time to early file managers with no multiple file selection, or folder selection, or full tree selection. Once I did get a few files "managed" they were still visible to the os after exiting the app. Not secured as one would expect. Then after shutting down and revisiting the encrypted files, they were no longer "managed" by the app, but fully encrypted and could not be decrypted. Guess I'll just create them again...Save your time with this one, and your precious data.

This app is incredible. Look at the posts and you'll see one by a user who spent a lot of time with the developer to finely tune this software to be the best DROID crypto package yet. As a security consultant and OpenSSL developer, I have a LOT of experience with encryption and this application is good. The only question I have is: Does the program do a Guttman or other algorithmic file scrub when deleting files?? This is extremely important, id love to know the answer. The app is awesome.
