Hi Ypower
To encrypt your files on your Android device you can choose "Upload" in the BoxCryptor app after you tapped the option button or you browse to your file using a file explorer. Then tap and hold on your file and choose "Send" and then "BoxCryptor". After that your file is encrypted on your device and sent to your Dropbox account.
Of course it is also possible to download BoxCryptor on your laptop and use your existing BoxCryptor folder or create a new one. The limitation of BoxCryptor for Windows is a 2GB encrypted folder limit. So if you need more space you have to purchase the Unlimited version.
All your apps which you have bought in the Android Market are stored in your Google account. So if you uninstall an app you can install the app later without the need to pay again for it.

Hi Boris
the problem is that it will show me the file and if i go inside it. it says " No items to display " so i can not see any picture or documents inside the file although it is been saved and i can see it and browse it though dopbox so i think there is something wrong
because it does not also give me the option to change source folder or clear stored password can you help me with that please ?

Hi Ypower
it seems you haven't already set up an encrypted folder which is essential for BoxCryptor. At the moment BoxCryptor for Android is not able yet to create a new directory so you have to use your Windows machine to set up BoxCryptor.
With BoxCryptor for Windows you can set up a folder where your encrypted files should be stored. After setting up this folder you can access your files on your Android device by choosing this new folder.

Hi All. I've set up BoxCryptor on my Reachout Wireless Smartphone and it works great. No needs to be worried about my business and security. Now all my data is in safe. Tnx
