[Q] Encryption software on Android

What encryption software exists on Android ?
Not that I do anything wrong, but I like my files to remain private.
I think that file-system encryption would be the best option like TrueCrypt ?
But out of interest does gpg exist yet on Android ?

I use iLock, its on the market. Nice app that lets you encrypt files that you choose.

please, delete this post

It's seems the best free app for your purposes is APG

use PGP encoding/decoding
Also U can use any compressing software with encoding feature. Like Dual File Manager.
I think is not a problem when I recommend you free apps?

Very basic question - What it the QR code on the Version info page for?

I just bought a MTCD_KD / rk3188 unit last night, and now have the wait for it to get here from China. It occured to me that I have seen many screen shots of the "Version Info" screen showing MCU, Android and Kernal Versions plus the build number. I know what they are, what the QR code for?

It scans as a copy of the information, so you don't have to re-type it. Sort of a copy and paste.

Hi, is the Amazon security update policy published somewhere or known? I know Google promises 2 years of updates and 3 years of security patches, but I can't find a similar general policy for Amazon.
Thanks.

Anybody have a clue what this is.. ?

11141 shows in data usage, but when clicked on. It shows no name. Assuming its malware but android dont let you view app data so no way of proving my theory.
Progress =when a security policy is a systems biggest vulnerability...

Instead of malwarebytes, use eset or spyware detector from protectstar

Can Quick Heal AntiVirus Pro protect my device from ransomware attacks?

Hello everyone,
Recently I have bought Quick Heal Antivirus software to secure my data, after using this software they will not prevent ransomware attacks. I don't know why this is so if you have any idea then share with me.

Wrong place: this forum is Android related.
The mentioned software is meant to be run on Windows computers!
