Folder Lock Customer Insights

1. Can you fix it? BTW, I'm using the app on android unit(on my car).does not work on the prestige 2.. I have tried locking all types of files and can still access them freely from file manager... useless.

2. WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!! Thank you for responding but I would not call losing a 1000 video files from the last 10 years an inconvenience! it's a disasterSo many adds are running and no skip option is available while opening this app.

3. And again and again this is being hanged and I can not even save anything as well as if something has saved then can not see in one go.I'm kind of not sure about this one I'm worried that a family member of mine might access some of my photos and think they're inappropriate so i decided to lock them behind a secure door and that door is your app! But what if she uninstalled it it's completely useless if that happens now.

4. They created an app that permanently locks all of your files for free and then tell you that data recovery is a premium feature, even though it's the first option in the settings of the free version.

5. update: file manager could see the encrypted copy the app made and still open the original files.

6. the video in its original file and the encrypted one in the folder lock file.

7. Just recently this has started happening: if I go into my Notes to make a change, the screen skips around and then scrolls to the bottom of the page, and then moves to the line I was changing but the line is at the top of the screen instead of where I was editing it.

8. Unlocking files the way it was "intended" does not send them back to your main gallery and takes them off the app gallery.

9. The app automatically moves to another music but there is pup up appears on the screen stating that it's moving to another file and the pup up stays forever.

10. No way to recover files if they were encrypted by an old phone.

11. 90+ photos gone! My gallery just shows the image data (number and date) and a default photo icon for each one.

Reported Issues

  • I use Folder Lock and suddenly yesterday I'm being told that I am entering the wrong password. But I am NOT entering the wrong password. I then went to the feature allowing me to recover my password and it tells me to enter my serial number below - but the serial number is locked in the program. The program also tells me to select the button below to recover my password but there is no button. I have also sent this complaint to you on your site but it works so poorly (slowly) I took this path as well.
