Free Version
Publisher Description
This update is available for Samsung Mobile with Android 7.0 and above.
Secure Folder leverages the defence-grade Samsung Knox security platform to create a private, encrypted space on your Samsung Galaxy phone. Apps and data moved to Secure Folder are sandboxed separately on the device and gain an additional layer of security and privacy
Easier and more convenient
Store your private files and apps safely. It's easy to move apps and data by tapping "Move to Secure Folder" or by importing them via "Add files" from inside Secure Folder. Your personal apps and data will be separated and encrypted so that they are protected from malicious attacks.
More secure
Lock your Secure Folder with an additional PIN, pattern, password, or biometric lock, so that only you can access your private pictures, apps, and data.
Effectively manage data
Add or copy your apps and data into Secure Folder. You can use Secure Folder to store your private contacts, photos, and more in a separate account. This allows you to have two profiles on a device so you can manage your data more effectively.
※ Secure Folder will operate only on official software released by Samsung Electronics. Features or UX may vary depending on the device, OS version, etc.
※ Secure Folder is a service, based on Samsung account, that provides an independent, isolated environment within your mobile device. Applications and data moved or added to Secure Folder (e.g. photos, audio files, movie files, and documents), will not be accessible from outside Secure Folder, whether by USB or Wi-Fi Direct. If your mobile device detects any rooting or custom ROMs, Secure Folder will automatically lock-up in order to prevent unauthorised access, in which case you will no longer be able to access or use the contents within Secure Folder. Therefore, please make sure you back up any important applications or data elsewhere, such as on your personal computer, before moving them to Secure Folder. Samsung is not responsible for any data loss or inaccessibility.

About Secure Folder
Secure Folder is an app developed by Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. that allows users to protect their personal data and apps with a secure password or biometric authentication. The app creates a separate, encrypted folder on the user's device where they can store sensitive information such as photos, documents, and contacts. Users can easily move files into the Secure Folder from their device's main storage area or other apps, ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to them. Additionally, users can install apps within the Secure Folder that are separate from those in their device's main storage area. This means that even if someone gains access to the user's phone or tablet, they will not be able to view any of the content stored within Secure Folder without entering the correct password or using biometric authentication like fingerprint recognition. Overall, Secure Folder provides an added layer of security for Android devices and gives users peace of mind knowing that their personal information is protected against unauthorized access and potential breaches.
