Yuliang 0 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 PLEASE DO NOT sync all my note to /sdcard, or at least use AES to encrypt. Every app which accquired sdcard access and network access can steal all my personal information!!! Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,137 Posted January 18, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted January 18, 2012 Hi - have you specified a notebook for offline search? If so, all your notes are sync'd locally so you can enjoy this option. If you haven't chosen offline search then choose "clear cache" from ~settings ~search and storage to clear unwanted data from your card. If you want to keep offline search information available but confidential, consider password protected PDFs. AFAIK there are no plans to encrypt local database storage - it's left to the user to organise appropriate levels of security. Link to comment
alessio 5 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I am definitely grateful for offline notebooks and offline search.However, I do share with OP privacy concerns with my notesbeing available basically in full to anybody who could get hishands on my stolen/lost Android device. I am protecting a lot of my data that needs to be kept privatein encrypted containers using LUKSmanager app:http://nemesis2.qx.n...ges/LUKSManagerBut currently EN database is stored in default, non-encrypted location.I would be super grateful if Evernote can give us an option to move adatabase to user-selected (encrypted) location.Evernote Android team, can you please share your thoughtsabout going in this direction? Thank you!Kind regards,~ Ales Link to comment
garychenc00l 13 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 If you guys don't know this already, the note content is in EverNote's special XML format, so yeah it can be read pretty easily. Link to comment

That's why I would like to see an option to move EN database in encrypted container,thus preventing someone to browse through my private notes by just inserting an SD-card in his PCand viewing the notes with XML viewer/editor.I understand that this would prevent us using EN widget, but IMO this is a small price to pay for peace of mind.
