About this app

Tella . In challenging environments--with limited or no internet connectivity or in the face of repression--Tella makes it easier and safer to document events, whether that’s violence, human rights violations, corruption, or electoral fraud.

ENCRYPTION: All of the content and data stored in Tella are encrypted. This means that unless the app is unlocked, all the data within Tella will remain inaccessible.

FILE MANAGEMENT: Take photos, videos, or audio recordings directly in Tella, or import documents from your phone, and easily organize your files in folders.

CAMOUFLAGE: Change the app icon and name to a seemingly harmless one, such as a calculator or a camera.

QUICK DELETE: In just a few seconds, delete all the sensitive data and files stored in Tella.

DATA-COLLECTION: Groups and organizations can collect data through forms and surveys, and received the data directly on their server.

Super cool app that almost exactly what I need for managing encrypted pictures, minus one star for no pinch and zoom in picture preview. I havent tried videos but hoping there is a preview player inside the app for that as well! Will move over my documents and pictures once functionality is upgraded! Awesome response! 5 stars!

Thank you for taking the time to rate Tella and share your feedback. We know having to set display settings every single time can be annoying, so we're hoping to fix it in the next few releases! Keep an eye out on our release notes for our announcement: https://tella-app.org/releases

Pretty good app, but missing 3 things to be perfect, first is the ability to Zoom in when opening an image, and second is opening a Pdf document without exporting it, third is the ability to export an encrypted backup file to be able to import in another phone with the password and same files and folders
