iShredder™ 5 PRO Data Shredder for Android
Just hope it really distroys everything like it says it does.
**Updated** Purchased upgrade in app to military and then reset my phone now it's not available says I have to repurchase.
New update completely slowed it down. Used to be able to do a one full cycle in one, maybe two hours. Currently sitting at 33% after 4 hours into one cycle.
I mean frees space , can you email me?
Thankyou, I have also purchased the upgrade, thankyou guys for listening to previous issues. Theo people who followed this, they more than fixed my issue. Replied fast. Upon just installing the new address on.. so fare more then good.. cheers guys. Thank you Protectstar.
Constant improvements and bug fixes. Love the new version! One thing to improve is an option to disable scanning in beginning of app which takes too long when all I want to do is shred a couple files on internal storage. Thank you!
Update fixes file selection issue. Thanks!
When I purchased it, I was really happy. After a recent update, I now have reduced functionality without having upgrading to a Enterprise level asking for more money for services I already had and initially paid for. Feel like I've been ripped off. Not happy!!!
I like the app but crashes whenever I try to erase any individual file or folder on my SD card storage. Phone internal storage works fine. I got a Samsung galaxy s7 edge with android 7.0. The application just closes / crashes with a android popup message saying application has crashed. All permissions are set. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Still the same results.
Great tech support thank you Max !!!!
This is a terrifying app, I really liked the free space wipe, but it's the definition of user unfriendly to delete any files - click files, docs, pics category and it immediately tells you it's deleting stuff, whooaaa what are you destroying anything, everything ? At least you do have a stop button! I found another product that let's me pick the files before it destroys stuff. I really wanted a pro product so paid for this, too bad. I thought there was refund button but disappeared, learning hard way.
I have not had any issues with the app since the last update.i ve got the samsung galaxy s7 and it seems to work well now.i havent had any problems. I like the various erase algorithms.i guess my only suggestion would be to allow the app to work in the background and under lock which i think it does.keep up good work
Sooooo slow! 1.5 hours for deleting 100 photos. User interface is truly truly outdated and dysfunctional. Wish I could return. Not worth the money.
Runs great on my Samsung Note Edge and LG V10. Works as advertise.
Speedy update to fix bugs. Excellent.

Samsung galaxy s7 reports successful deletion, yet files remain. Support indicates issue, should have appropriate error message by now
USB OTG free space shred doesn't seem to be supported; Why? Edit: flash storage mounted on "/storage/usb/" fat32 format.
Great app clears phone and tablet but I have one big issue with it and that's the fact u can not just delete files on own it always wants to wipe free space aswell when I just want delete stuff securley
I used this app in order to secure wipe free disk space on my SD Card using the appropriate options (not many to choose from). And not only did it wipe the "free disk space", but it also ended up deleting everything from my SD Card in the process. All of my photos, videos, other personal files have been completely wiped out, unable to be recovered. There's a clear lack of explanation on what each option does; and it doesn't tell you if it'll apply each of the selection options to both the Internal memory or the SD Card. Please do not buy this application.
This app is very user friendly and does exactly what it says, securely wipes and then deletes free space and files, etc.
It deleted all my photos from the photo gallery, photos not intended for deletion..not sure that is a normal feature but it definitely does what it says it will do. Still happy with the app.. thanks you developers..
Gets to 100% then it stops downloading, so I can't install on phone. Using wifi.
I like this app I have seen it get better,I think the only thing I would ask is this a good app to run under a locked screen.im running Samsung galaxy tab email running lollipop 5.1
The app works as advertised. I've tried to recover files afterwards and they can't be found. It's easy to use and has several deletion parameters. Just be patient and allow it to completely run.

I have used all options to shred deleted files but I see them using a different app. Am I missing something here? Please advise
Love this app. So easy to use. I do have a question though for the devs. I am a little clued up on how memory works but not 100%. My question is- I notice these algorithms are for the purpose of deleting magnetic memory i.e. computer hard drives etc. But am i right in saying a smart phone's memory is different? It doesn't store memory in magnetic form rather electronicly due to the small size of the device? And if that is the case how do these algorithms work on such devices being completely different?
You could shred by going through your files, but you can not see your photos or single contacts, a good app would prompt the option to shred when you are in your album or contacts list.

Love this app. Well worth the few dollars. By far the best secure erase / shredder app so far.
Wow it took several hours for 50 cycles. But it's well worth the wait. For complete piece of mind. With total global security standards. I very much recommend the upgrade. Well worth the price.
I can verify this app fills the entire free space of my device. If you check while in progress, your internal storage will decrease progressively, satisfying me the job is done correctly. Just a note to Protect Star; please can you correctly list the methods in the menu in the Pro version? I look forward to a zero wipe, as well. Buy this app NOW!!!.

My phone storage is only 32gb so i cant run anything past the 3 cycle ones since it takes up so much space to operate so my question is...if i run the 3 cycle wipe twice would that be equal to running a 6 cycle wipe?

Works fine but when I selected an sd card file to erase, the entire card was erased. A final confirmation check of what is to be erased would help to avoid this issue. You told me to wait for a big update which I have now done and I have had to purchase the professional edition but I still am unable to secure erase individual files on my SD card. The options were not clear and Because it's an in app purchase I can't get a refund either.
