Editor's Overview

DroidFS is a file encryption & vault application developed by Hardcore Sushi, packaged as a single Android APK of version 2.1 weighing in at 21.43 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
File size is a light 21.43 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
This build is signed by "Hardcore Sushi" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

DroidFS is an alternative way to use encrypted overlay file-systems on Android that uses its own internal file explorer instead of mounting volumes. This allows you to store files in encrypted vaults that other apps can't decrypt.
Currently, DroidFS supports the following encrypted containers:
- gocryptfs (https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs): encrypts file contents and file names but doesn't hide directory structure or file sizes.
- CryFS (https://github.com/cryfs/cryfs): slower, but encrypts everything and obfuscates file sizes.

Features:
- Compatible with original encrypted volume implementations
- Internal support for video, audio, images, text and PDF files
- Built-in camera to take on-the-fly encrypted photos and videos
- Ability to expose volumes to other applications
- Unlocking volumes using fingerprint authentication
- Volume auto-locking when the app goes in background

Permissions:
Read & write access to shared storage: required to access volumes located on shared storage.
Biometric/Fingerprint hardware: needed to encrypt/decrypt password hashes using a fingerprint protected key.
Camera: required to take encrypted photos or videos directly from the app.
Record audio: required if you want sound on videos recorded with DroidFS.
Notifications: used to report file operations progress and notify about volumes kept open

All of these permissions can be denied if you don't want to use the corresponding feature.

DroidFS is free, open-source, and you can find the project's repository:
- on GitHub: https://github.com/hardcore-sushi/DroidFS
- on the Gitea instance of the Chapril project: https://forge.chapril.org/hardcoresushi/DroidFS

Warning !
Security is neither absolute nor definitive. DroidFS does not come with any warranty and should not be considered as an absolute safe way to store files.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is DroidFS free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does DroidFS require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is DroidFS safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by Hardcore Sushi. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update DroidFS?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
