.... .... karoch written instructions ..... very brief .... EncDroid creates volume (encrypted folder) in a long time ago invented EncFS (Encrypted File System) format.
This volume (also sometimes called analogy with TrueCrypt container that is not quite right) side looks like a normal folder tree structure with unreadable (encrypted) names (the names are encrypted subfolders and filenames).
Any files (added to the container with your device) are automatically encrypted as you have for this container password.
No one except you will not be able to access the files in the container without knowing the password .... also encrypted file names (file names inside the container becomes unreadable to other file conductors) .... for example, with the name of the folder [My PINs to the salary cards], depending on the password starts to look the part like this: [dbwJxheJ3 + hQJdM6dd1xhwJKHdwjJw9xjwSJweJ], which further protects against hacking attempts to target an attacker potentially interesting information to him.
When creating a new volume / container (i.e. folders), the [.NECFS6.xml] key key is created inside it, which contains the settings (description) of the container and your password in encrypted form (therefore it makes no sense to hide it and can be stored publicly ). If this technical file will be lost, you will no longer be able to open the container, so try not accidentally delete this file, and even better save it a copy elsewhere (since the file name starts from the point, it may not be visible, you must turn on the display such files in any file manager)
==============================
How to create / open an encrypted volume / folderCan
(1)create a new encrypted volume or
(2)mount (open / connect) an existing encrypted volume (folder) to the device, with DROPBOXa or Google Drive (to create / mount does not need ROOT container) ....
1. To create a new encrypted folder (volume), click the "New" / "Create Volume" =>select path =>think of the name of the folder (volume) =>create a password folder (volume) =>Click on the =>"Open" / "Unlock"
To
encryptfiles by putting them in, click "Add" / "Import" =>select a file or multiple files long holding on any file .... (in the same way that you can add to the entire folder with the device) =>The importing of the files / folders to an encrypted volume.
2. To connect an existing encrypted volume, click "Mount" / "Import Volume" =>select the path that is the container (if the "Settings" application included "Auto Volume" / "Autoimport volumes", the program will automatically detect the configuration. file and prompts mount is what we have to agree) =>enter the name =>enter a password.
Likewise, you can create a new encrypted folder or mount in your existing account as a gift DROPBOX or Google Drive =>Click "Create" / "Create Volume" or "Mount" / "Import Volume" =>Select an Account, restrict access, create a new folder or an existing mount.
Inside the volume, you can perform simple file operations: copy / Copy, Cut / Cut, rename / Rename, delete / Delete ....
To
decryptfile from volume =>select the file / files / folder =>press the "Decrypt" / "Export to Device", enter the path where you want to decrypt the file.
Note that:
1. After encrypting the original files (source-files) are left on the map you want to remove (EncDroid not "cleans" the source)
2. to encrypt files into a container, add exclusively via the program itself rather than through a third-party file managers .... files simply placed / copied to the folder are not encoding ....
==============================
EncFS works somewhat differently from Truecrypt, not encrypting the whole volume / containers, and in terms folder with a separate encrypted files inside, turning to him with a common-key file. In this case, the encrypted files in a folder are more resistant to damage if one of any container bits suddenly "fell down" / "crippled". (One accidentally "broken" / "kalechny" bit will not open Truecrypt container).
It also contributes to a more seamless integration with cloud services, as if cloud sync (upload / download) updates only modified files, not the entire container (as in Truecrypt). If the encrypted volume EncDroida with multiple files weigh, for example, 5 MB, and you change in volume of a single file size of 1MB, then the synchronization traffic is spent only on the fayil (1Mb) in TrueCrypt when you change just one file (1MB) is pumped again all volume (5 MB).
..... also unlike TrueCrypta, which has a limited size of the container, the container size (volume) Encdroida changes dynamically, i.e. It is not limited in nature. In TrueCrypt if you create an encrypted volume size, let's say, 5 MB and if that eventually filled, then to encrypt the new file is necessary to create a new blank is ..... in EncDroid, once by creating an encrypted, the files can be added indefinitely ( folder can grow without limitations)
==============================
Encrypted volumes EncDroid cross-platform / compatible with EncFS, and files created with Encdroid can be viewed on other operating systems: Windows / MacOS / iOS / Linux, and vice versa.

P.S .:
.... Ruth does not need to open the containers ....
.... the program is open source, which allows to carry out an audit on the presence of malicious bookmarks ....

Generally .... .... .... achieved in other words cross-platform
encrypted folder / container =>
IN THEORYencrypting once file / files on ustroiystve one oper.sistemoy and putting the encrypted container on your USB flash drive or sending, for example, in your cloud, you can then open / decrypt files on the device, on the other oper.sistemoy (eg, home shifranut desired files on Windows -kompe =>decipher them at work on MacOS =>decrypt them on Android-phone on the way home from work .... + more on iOS and Linux) .... in short, it is necessary to test ... especially considering that once omnivorous Truecrypt turned down the project, and like as not supported ?? ?
