Description by The Simple Apps(from Google Play)
File Locker allows you to manage files and prevent unwanted access to your private files - personal photos, videos, or confidential documents with PIN, pattern or password lock.
★ How it works? This app locks file by encrypting the file content with the password and then hiding the encrypted file. It does not move the file to another folder. So if you delete the folder, the locked file will be deleted as well.
★ Please note: The out of memory error may occur when the free storage of device is not enough to lock/unlock file. For example, please note that to unlock a 100 MB file, your device must have at least 100 MB of free storage. So, in this case you may need to free up your device storage to be able to unlock the file.
Features: ★ Simple File Manager ★ Safe and easy to use ★ No unnecessary permissions ★ Use Advanced Encryption Standard to lock files with password ★ Advanced security settings: - Prevent uninstalling File Locker by activating its device admin

FAQ: • How if I forget the lock screen? Because this app doesn't want to use Internet access (for your privacy), so it doesn't support password recovery via internet such as email. If you forget password, you can clear app data or re-install app to reset password. But if you cannot recover the old password, you will not be able to unlock the files locked before. So please try to not forget the password!

This app really encrypts files to lock them. Very secure!
★★★★★Yong Park· Dec 3, 2021
Works well like a file manager but can lock files
★★★★★InDeath WeEvolve· Jan 30, 2025
I think this app works decent. I am wondering if it's possible to delete all the encrypted files if app were to be uninstalled? And if the app were uninstalled and say the files remained then if the app were red downloaded would you be able to access them and would you ever be able to delete them from your phone?

Avoid this "File Locker"app (with icon of a padlock). I paid to eliminate the ads, and the ads became worse and repeatedly interrupted operations and repeatedly forced re-login with password and restart of operations.

I've demoted it from 5to1 cuz it ain't decrypt files, it shows out of memory" error so improve on that 😰😨😓

Sounds like great idea But how can I access to the locked folders . Now I am not able to work on my locked folders . Only because of this reason I give 1 star

It's a good app, but when you encrypt an image file the thumbnail for the encrypted image file will disappear. The developer needs to fix this problem. When encrypting an image file please do not hide the thumbnail image for the encrypted file.

A message to developer. The developer should add a feature of watching ads and getting the paid feature for a limited time. One ad-a limited time to use paid feature and another point. We should be able to watch ads every time we are connected to internet/data. Hope the developer understand. I will rate this app to 5 stars if the developer solve this problem Edited:- I am not able to write another problem because there is a limitation of words. If I got a reply here I will mail the developer.
