Downloaded app and did a test on 2 movies stored on my sd card. Both movies are now lost and I have not been able to locate them with my phone or PC. I'd like some assistance as well as better product R and D!! ****In response to your reply, how about coming up with a better solution and actually test your app thoroughly before releasing it!! I have searched my entire phone with my computer and have only found d 2 empty folders.....no movies to be found....but the memory space is still used up!!

The path may be different on different phones. You can connect your phone to your pc and search for all the .hider files from there if you couldn't find the hidden files in the recovery_area folder.

I use on a Samsung A70 and the fast mode is very quick. It works well without the password. I set a 4 digit password (and wrote it on a piece of paper) and it worked a few times, but when i returned to my phone later and tried It would not recognize the 4 digit password. After that i was not able to recovery my files :-( Also, the files that were hidden were on the phone's internal memory and I am not sure if the 3Gb space that they were occupying is also lost forever as i have not been able to recover the files. The OS is Android 9, and I cannot find the hidden folder indicated, only a folder named "com.boli.hermit.hider", and inside this, another folder named "files" which is empty. The exact same folders are on the phone's internal memory and on the SD card.

search the folder /mnt/sdcard/.hermit/recovery_area for the files with .hider extension.And then create a new folder somewhere and move all those hidden files into it. You can re-hide that folder and then unhide it in the app. You can also manually rename the files by removing the .hider extension if there are just several files.
