Comments on Secure delete for Android

★★☆☆☆ It did not take out the pictures I wanted to be deleted from my phone they are still there. On my kik app when you go to send a pic there is a bunch on there that would not delete after I used this app so how do I get them deleted. And there NOT showing up in my photo gallery.
★★☆☆☆ Downloaded just to write this review. DO NOT EXPECT THESE TYPES OF APPs TO PROTECT YOU! Scam artist every one of them. They spin up 1¢ worth of sugar into a $5 cotton candy and like sugar that has no nutrients, these apps do little if nothing to delete sensitive files and may very well brick your phone. You can tell if they are a crooked scam artists by running a program like Undelete to see how many files and photos did NOT get erased.
★★☆☆☆ You have to select each file individually even if you have to delete 6000 photos. Crazy app.
