Simple, safe and effective. This app provides zero knowledge cloud encryption. It now works with Word!!
★★★★★John Morris· May 25, 2024
So far, it just works. I am transitioning away from Microsoft Windows and OneDrive due to increasingly grave privacy concerns. I am changing to solely Linux computers now and am I using cloud plus Cryptomator for cloud storage. The combo is about as simple as encrypted cloud storage containers possibly can be. Fairly similar to OneDrive's "Personal Vault" in ease of use. On Android, this app opens my cloud directory seamlessly, and it provides all the expected "sharing" of files from my device.

Wow! Brilliant app. Integration with Google Drive and my own hosting (WebDAV) working flawlessly. Photo Upload is a nice touch - not what I bought it for, but I will use it!

No support for the very famous MEGA online cloud storage platform
★★☆☆☆Peter· Nov 27, 2024
The automatic image upload is killing me. It's one of the main reasons I got Cryptomator, and it doesn't work right. For years, people have complained that deleting an uploaded image on your computer simply prompts Cryptomator to re-upload it from your phone again, making it completely impossible to organize or clean up your image folder. For the other user, it seems to do fine with encrypting my files on Dropbox. But, dang, the image upload sucks!
★☆☆☆☆Steven Tee· Jun 11, 2026
Does not work with Google Drive on my Pixel 10. Existing Vault created on PC opens on Android app but does not show any file content. Google won't let me refund even though I bought it a few hours ago, disappointed for such an expensive app

Trust & Safety: Open-source cryptography focus (AES-256 and scrypt) with client-side data protection.

This posture aligns with cloud vault operations, but review of the permission set is advised for a full safety assessment.
