Best Secret Folder Reviews

I got BestSecretFolder years ago when a lot of features were free (there were still paid features at the time, but things like the fake login screen and landscape rotation were in the free version). After a while they blocked most of those behind the paid version, but I kept using it as it was. No... Show more w it doesn’t even remember the pattern I used to unlock it with, so it’s useless and I can’t even get in anymore. Stay far away from BestSecretFolder.

BestSecretFolder was great for me for three years until it got shut down because of financial support for it or some bs like that. They never notified me they were going to lock down BestSecretFolder . I lost EVERYTHING! I had pics and videos of my best friend that had died, old videos of my child... Show more ren when they were young and some important photos. It would have been nice to have notified me that you were shutting BestSecretFolder down so I could transfer everything but you couldn’t even do that. Go to hell Best Secret Folder!!

I really loved BestSecretFolder. I love that I have unlimited storage without a subscription. I like that I can write a note and keep it locked up. It was a little bit of a pain with all the adds, but even that wasn’t a huge deal. The dummy screen was a little weird since it said the folder was em... Show more pty, but it worked for what it was and I liked using that. With this new update though, you can’t use the dummy screen unless you subscribe to their yearly subscription. You should still be allowed to sit through the adds if you want to at least use the dummy screen, and pay to get rid of the adds. I’m looking for a new app because this just isn’t as useful as it was.

I really enjoyed BestSecretFolder. I kept things I needed for work that was confidential. And when they updated BestSecretFolder I can no longer get into the gallery. You used to have to draw your password after the update they took it away and gave you a punch pad to enter numbers and it doesn’t... Show more work. I’ve lost files now that I can’t get back. I’ve contacted customer support numerous times with no response. Except we are working on it thank you for your patients. This has been going on for 3-4 months. If developers are reading the comments I NEED HELP. If I could get into my app this would be 5 stars

I have been using Best SF app for a few years. BestSecretFolder disappeared from my iPhone last week and I lost all data saved with BestSecretFolder . I can’t restore the lost data from iCloud backup. I can’t find any support contact from BestSecretFolder itself. There is an option to send mess... Show more age in Apple store under BestSecretFolder. But no one seems to be on receiving end at all. So users beware you can lose all of your data on any given day. When that happens to you, you are on your own.

I paid for the pro version because it said you could use it with Dropbox or Google Drive. What they don't say is that you can only move a file to those services, not bring a file back from them. So basically, it's a backup that you cannot restore. There was no way to test that with the free version... Show more , so I just had to take their word for it. There was a waste of $1.99. I did give it a second star because it does seem to basically work otherwise.

everything WAS sooo good. BestSecretFolder used to have unlimited free storage and it was the best! i relied on BestSecretFolder 24/7 and told many people about it. although you guys should add a restore photo/video button. every time i had to get a video that i had stored in BestSecretFolder , i... Show more needed to screen record and i didn’t like that. but things got worse as i updated BestSecretFolder , realizing they updated everything, taking away free unlimited storage and making you watch an ad for 3 free storage spaces every time if you needed to store something and that led me into deleting BestSecretFolder .

After I use BestSecretFolder a couple of times, when I try and open it at a later time, it opens and says, “this folder is empty,” and you can’t access anything anymore. I’ve had to delete BestSecretFolder and reinstall 3 times and I lose everything that I had saved on BestSecretFolder . I do rea... Show more lly like all of the features of BestSecretFolder , but this part is frustrating and kind of defeats the purpose of BestSecretFolder , if I have to start over every time. If it does it again, I will delete BestSecretFolder and get a different one.

First, I should say I like BestSecretFolder a lot. The vault animation is a little cheesy and it’s kind of cartoonish, but it gets the job done. My biggest concern is with the dummy screen. The dummy screen feature is a nice start, but needs to be reworked. It says the folder is empty, tap Exit to... Show more close. The real purpose of the dummy screen is to make the user think that BestSecretFolder just doesn’t have any files yet. The way it displays, it makes no effort to fool the snooper into thinking the screen has any purpose other than to get them to close BestSecretFolder . If the snooper thinks about it for more than a second, they’ll ask themselves why does BestSecretFolder exist if there’s no way to add files? The dummy screen at least needs to look like a setup screen that the user hasn’t gone through yet. That’s all the functionality it needs. The way it looks now, it’s not going to fool anyone.

Update Feb. 2019: I would gladly pay for BestSecretFolder if it would do a photos slide show in landscape mode, with all the other display options you now offer. Please do it.
***************

Basically a fine program. Good job.
1. It would be nice to open it and run it in Landscap... Show more e, rather than Portrait mode. For the iPad, that would work great.
2. When previewing files, particularly videos, the ability to “zoom” would be a big plus. Right now we have to export a video to the Photos folder to do this.
3. Why is it necessary to compress a video and not just store it as it is? It is still on the same device, is it not?
No response is expected. Thanks.

I am a retired US Military Pilot. I am hard fella to impress. BestSecretFolder is very good, I do like it. Here is what I would love to see improved.

1. 256k Military Encryption a MUST

2. I agree with a review I saw, make Dummy screen look like the apps setup screen that has not... Show more actually been setup A MUST

3. Find a way to allow users to creat a secret Vault within BestSecretFolder with 256k Encryption

This Vault within the Primary Vault gives the ultimate security from prying eyes

4. Update the apps icon to look more Professional and not so cheesy

5. Update the Vault graphic to make professional looking

Folks BestSecretFolder is actually very good, as a 26 year Military Retired Pilot, I highly recommend it.

I would definitely pay for the above improvements and encryption

GuyZ get to programming!!! Make it Happen

Thank you very much

NOTE: I do like the way you have us to put in password by sliding patterns

I would like any comments please

Last request: if you make these improvements we as users want it 100% secure in other words, you as developers have zero access to users personal and private data and encryption

Hi now you see my sister is nosy so she tried to steal my phone and go through my.......everything. But this stoped her from getting in. I had uploaded some photos and some videos that i need to keep safe. So the password kept her out! I even told her a face passcode!🤣thx for reading this. Here is... Show more cookie 🍪🍪🍪

No longer having to worry about handing my niece my phone or tablet. As now I can hide pics and other things that she has absolutely no business seeing or even knowing that such stuff exists.
Thank you for an awesome app!!

I like it so far. But needs the option to put pic back in photo album in Phone. I don’t want the other options now I can’t get my pics.

I like the idea of BestSecretFolder. Problem is it’s almost impossible to get pictures from your photo roll to go into BestSecretFolder . Can’t tell if and when pictures have been accepted and saved. Need to make it so that when you pick a picture, it’s highlighted or checked. Fix that and you’ll ... Show more have a pretty good app

This is the best thing ever you could actually put a password in .people don’t have to be all your business and you actually could put like your pictures like a gallery notes and everything And it even have a video it is so awesome you should really try this

Great app...keeps everything private that you want private...it could be slightly improved like be able to rename your videos...the function used to be available but one of BestSecretFolder updates it went away... this function is still available for photos... app is well worth it...

Great app for storing personal items, from files to pictures, whatever you choose. Most folks have figured out what these “secret” folders look like; a calculator, weather app etc. But who cares? If you need to disguise BestSecretFolder any deeper, you can if you’re creative.

As for what ... Show more BestSecretFolder does, it works and works well. Simple to use, upload files, easy access and very secure. I like it. You will, too.

I have had this for YEARS and it works amazing. I don’t have the paid version so I think that says enough about it. Honestly, it’s just an app to store pictures, notes, and videos on it. I like it Because i personally hate having my normal photo gallery all cramped so every once in a while I will d... Show more elete everything I don’t want and then move the remaining ones into BestSecretFolder. BestSecretFolder keeps it secure so no one can see it. If you’re look for an app to keep pictures or videos or notes private, this is definitely the way to go!

I have used BestSecretFolder for 3 or 4 years to track user names and passwords. The only thing that would make it better for this would be a search feature in BestSecretFolder . I have about 40 different usernames and passwords for various apps and accounts and there are times when I have to scro... Show more ll through all of them to find the password that I am looking for in BestSecretFolder .

I would also appreciate it if you could put the names for each password and user name in alphabetical order coordinated by the name of app you are looking for - if you cannot incorporate a search function.

BestSecretFolder really does work well. The only downside is the adverts for games etc. but BestSecretFolder itself is brilliant. Well done lads. The settings menu is fantastic and allows for serious lockdown, and it also lets you see if anyone’s been trying to get in it. Two thumbs up!

i know my password, yet i cant get in.. How do i access my BestSF folder???

Hi why can I not log in to the app ? My photos and videos are on my mattfolino@redacted account but can’t get into account

I don't have the app I have an Android phone do they make this for Android
