Cryptomator 1: Legacy

While some minor UI issues, this app and tool has worked as advertised. I appreciate having a guaranteed endpoint encryption option even on Cloud services that claim end-to-end encryption, when it turns out there are still several vectors in to their services. I’d prefer that the folders are completely hidden/masked when not unlocked but I am sure a feature that developers can work. Additionally the iOS Files integration is still a bit spotty. Sometimes forcing me to save unencrypted on iCloud or device to then move it into a Vault. Once they fix some of these issues and update their mascot/logo (a bit hideous for a legit company), definitely will update to 5 stars!

A solid open source and much lower cost alternative to Boxcryptor. As a suggestion though, there should be an option to change the name of the key files that are stored in the cloud provider under the name masterkey cryptomator to something that doesn't scream I have a bunch of encrypted files here and here's the key file. Alternatively, alow the user to manually change the names but allow the apps to pick a key file with any name; can't do that now.

My only gripe with the iOS version is the inability to download files onto my device while keeping them in an encrypted vault. I often work and travel in bandwidth constrained environments (remote locations with no signal, flying without wifi, etc) and can’t use Cryptomator because I’m not connected to the internet. I don’t want to download unencrypted versions of the files from Crypomator partitions onto my device due to their sensitive nature, though. Being able to store encrypted files locally with Cryptomator would make it the ultimate secure storage solution for me.

Great idea for encryption and privacy however it’s frustrating because the app times out on every single upload and even while just trying to create a folder. Have to keep force quitting this and other apps trying to send files to it. The files successfully upload but Cryptomator sits there and hangs, holding the other app and your screen hostage. Hope there’s a fix on the way.

I have been trying all sorts of encryption apps this week and I am glad I found Cryptomator. It does exactly what I need it to do. Easily protect my files on my Dropbox. Dropbox has the best syncing and now I have the best encryption to protect my files. And it unlocks my encrypted files with Face ID on my iPhone X. Very easy to upload encrypted files to my Dropbox from within the Cryptomator app. Highly recommended!
