I am looking for a encrypted app for the android to keep sensitive documents in for work and personal records. So far I found a app called Protectstar TimeLock. The whole "hidden" aspect is gimicky but its the best that I can find because of ease of use. I like this one because you can access the items with out manually decrypting or reencrypting them after your done. If you want to view the files out side of the app you can "download" the files to your phone.  https://www.protectstar.com/en/products/time-lock

It appears not to upload to a cloud, I dont want cloud upload.... But I dont have a way to verify that the files are truly 256 encrypted and my files are staying secure and no 3rd party can access them.

Cell phone gurus chime in, Running a encrypted Galaxy S5.

Nobody care about interrnet security?

SSE and EDS are too cumbersome for your purposes, I take it?

You are looking at 256 bit encryption when they are discarding 1024 bit certificates as obsolete?

You need better crypt than that if you want secure.

Different ciphers. The bit length isn't comparable between them. AES 256 is GTG.

Real question here is:

secure from whom?


That would dictate what happens next.
