Boxcryptor for Android questions

JimInWoodstock

2 questions

1. If I check "remember password", how long is the password saved/stored on the android device?

2. When I open a file in an encryted folder in dropbox, it downloads the file to the android device. Where is the file stored and is the file now de-crypted on the device in some other folder?

1) The password is remembered until you uncheck remember password in the user settings.

2) When you click on a file it is downloaded to "/sdcard/Android/data/com.boxcryptor2.android/cache/.c/[id].bc". After that the file is decrypted to "/sdcard/Android/data/com.boxcryptor2.android/cache/.p/[id]/[filename]". The decrypted file stays on your device as long as Boxcryptor is running. When you click on "Exit" in the Boxcryptor app the decrypted files folder is deleted and Boxcryptor quits.
You can also manage the encrypted and decrypted file cache in the settings.
