Secure Folder Customer Insights

1. The only issue I have is that when I try to use a feature of this app to send files from one device to another (from one android phone to another android phone), the phone to "receive" keeps saying to "turn off mobile data, even after mobile data has been turned off.. Other than that...this app is fantastic..! Another great feature is that you can setup various profiles to lock different things at different times.BEWARE : DO NOT USE!! BACKUP ANYTHING THAT YOU TRUST THIS APP WITH!! This app "hides" your pictures and videos by moving them into a hidden folder that you can't even see.

2. Fix this please.Moved 16 videos to the secure folder closed the app opened it back up and shows 16 videos the thumbnail for every video is just a white square and no video will play also every video is 0 bites in size so thank you for losing my videos or moving them and ruining them DONT INSTALL THIS it will lose or corrupt anything you put in the folder I literally have 1 video out of 16 that will play !!!!!!!!It seemed to work at first but I was not able to move pictures or videos out of the app.

3. Edit: As we can all see, the developer will respond to the "Feature" of not being able to open external apps to view or play content, but did not acknowledge the fact that the app cannot play or view certain formats.

5. I want to delete the app and restore the backup but I think it'll wipe everything out.Unable to open protected images or video in an external app.

6. When you unlock them the photos just dont show up in your gallery and videos do but they read 0:00 and can not be opened.

7. When choosing which files to hide), the folders are all haphazardly listed.I love this app!!!! Secure as hell, but simple to access anytime.
