Hola, folks, Finally! Saferoom Android is now in Google Play Store. Real encryption for Evernote notes is now available on Android! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.secomsoft.Saferoom To celebrate this huge achievement we are offering 50% discount on Saferoom iOS and Android apps till end of this week! Thank you for all your help and feedback! Saludos,Ilia

Hey, We are preparing the release of Saferoom Android, and I hope it will happen this or next week, depending on how fast Google Play will review the app. Therefore, we have closed sign-up for Beta. Thank you very much for participation, we really hope that you were not disappointed. Moreover, along with Saferoom Beta we are preparing a new feature in Saferoom iOS (supported in Android also) - starting from Saferoom iOS v1.7 you will be able to use 1Password to handle encryption and decryption. Here is a small demo how it will look like: Decrypting Evernote notes with 1Password extension Stay tuned for updates in twitter: https://twitter.com/saferoom_app Cheers, Ilia

Hello, We will start sending invitations tomorrow with a link to Saferoom Android Beta. If you don't receive it till Friday(25.02) evening, please contact us. Regards, Ilia ... And one more thing: Saferoom is now listed in Evernote App Centre - https://appcenter.evernote.com/app/saferoom/

Hello, We are almost ready - I think we will start sending the instructions this Friday. We want to finish Share Extension so you can also test decryption directly from Evernote app. If we won't finish it, then we will just send the invites for beta without the extension. Cheers, Ilia

Hey, We have opened a sign up for Saferoom Android Beta testing. You can join Beta testing using the form at our website: http://getsaferoom.com jdmarch, I have not got any mails from you, I am just checking if you've send something. Cheers, Ilia

Hi, jdmarch, Thanks again for thorough check, and below are my comments. If it is fine with you, let's continue our troubleshooting using our support mail: support@getsaferoom.com . You can report any issues using this email. Agreed, this is a bug. I have attached this for version 1.4. We might also add some errors printout in lower status bar, so you can immediately see what was the problem. Error is clear, some tag is not closed. All right, I will try to reproduce this. As a user I understand your point of view here. However, we are still dependent on Evernote, and this bug is potentially Evernote export/import issue. I will investigate this further. I would suggest that you try to export this note, and then import it back to Evernote and see if there are any errors. Now here how it works: let's say you move a note with title "First Note" to encryption inbox. You press "Encrypt now", it is encrypted and place to other notebook of your choice. Now if you press again "Encrypt now" again, nothing will happen, because Saferoom knows that it has already encrypted this note. Now you move "Second Note" to encryption inbox and here you have an option: if you press "Clear note cache" before "Encrypt now", "First note" and "Second note" will be encrypted. So you will have duplicate of "First note" encrypted, because after clearing the cache Saferoom runs encryption of all notes in the encryption inbox (cache is empty, so all notes considered to be new). If you don't press "Clear note cache", then only "Second note" will encrypted. We have done that to avoid creating more duplicates. We thought that notebook for encryption should be always empty, and if accidentally you forget one original note there, it will not encrypted again. I would like to welcome a discussion about this functionality if you want, because it seems not very fluid and a bit cumbersome for us also. The question is: is it ok to have duplicates if you don't remove notes from encryption inbox? Thanks, Ilia

Hello, jdmarch, See my answers below. Interesting... So here is how it works - as title is not encrypted, then when you press "Encrypt" for the second time after change the title, the note is not encrypted because Saferoom sees that the content has not changed. You press "Clear note cache" in Tools, before you press Encrypt and the note will be encrypted with the new title. These tags are by default in the app. You can remove them in Tools->Settings - just leave the fields for tags blank. Similarly, notes deleted from the source plaintext notebook remain in the encrypted notebook. Conservative, but eventually messy. Seems that the easiest resolution to both issues is to delete all encrypted notes, and re-encrypt the source notebook. We made it so that Saferoom Desktop apps never delete anything. This was done on purpose to protect users. I agree that it is a bit messy, but automatic deletion of notes can lead to more severe consequences. This is also done on purpose in the beginning. By default all notebooks that we create are local - if we would create a synced notebooks for the results, and for some reason some user can accidentally copy original note there (or for decryption), then this note can be automatically synced with Evernote cloud, hence, there is no point of encrypting it. To avoid such risk in the beginning when our users just start with the app we decided to make all notebooks local. Please let me know if above answers are enough for you or you would like more explanations. Regards, Ilia P.S. We are working on Saferoom Pro app for Windows and MacOS which will feature much closer integration with Evernote.

Hello, TheMyth, Wow, I've never thought about this - thanks a lot for a challenging use case. As everything is stored in Evernote I thought that you can revert changes made to a note. Just tried that to cancel my changes to a note - and it is not so simple. I have used note history, but it works only for Premium. https://evernote.com/contact/support/kb/#!/article/23258632 We need some time to think about implementation of such feature - maybe a like a tip where the character(s) have been changed, etc. Cheers, Ilia

Hi, All right. We were already thinking about browser extensions - from the first check it looks like a simple task, however, our experience tells us that things usually are not what they seem to be in beginning. We need a bit more to investigate due to our load with Android version. I will post updates here and in twitter (https://twitter.com/saferoom_app) Regards, Ilia P.S. Check the new feature that we are deploying for Saferoom iOS v1.5 - you can now decrypt notes directly from Evernote app: https://youtu.be/dE9tGY1OQQQ

Hello, evernote-fan, There is no way to attach Saferoom to Evernote Web Client. The only possible way is to create browser extension to which you can "share" your Evernote note. However, there is a catch - you still need to install something (browser extension). I think your question is related to a more complicated issue - when you are Internet cafe or library PC (with strict access policy), am I right?

Hallo, Panzerkampfwagen, Yes, unfortunately, this is a trade-off one have to make - either you have full encryption or indexing. However, it does not mean that there is no golden middle. We are investigating this question closely. I think that you need to search through many notes which include many different types of data like PDFs, images and etc. If they all are encrypted then you cannot search. We will try to find a way to provide at least partially indexing functionality and keep encryption still on current level. There are ways to achieve that - we are now "playing" with recognition tags, no good progress so far. I just wanted to mention that we are looking into that seriously. Thank you, Ilia

Hi, eric99, We are using standard AES-512 algorithm. And we are using standard iOS/Android/MacOS/Windows built-in libraries that work with it. Regards, Ilia

Hello, incantata, I am deeply sorry that you had such a negative experience. And it hurts me even more because this negative experience is the result of my mistake - I think that you have installed the old version of Saferoom which had a timer support. It executed encryption/decryption operation based on configurable timer. By default it was set to 1 minute only. We quickly realized that it was not a very good for users based on the same frustrating experience that you and other users had. Our new version that you can download from here does not have such functionality and is informing you only when you run the encryption or decryption operation. My mistake was that in earlier posts I did not change the links for download - old links were forwarding users to CNET download. We are not placing our software there anymore. Here is a correct link: http://en.softonic.com/s/saferoom:windows-mac-iphone-android-windows-phone-7-web-apps/windows I really hope that you will give it a second try and maybe this time it will not be so annoying. I have already agreed that this weekend we will add two improvements - an indicator in the main window of the decryption/encryption process and an option to remove any pop-ups. Thanks a lot for your feedback, Cheers, Ilia

Hello, zir, thank you for your interest. For Google Drive I think we will start in December. First we will try to support Dropbox, and then we will start investigations about Google Drive. Meanwhile, you can try Boxcryptor which might be a good solution for Google Drive only - only check if they are really zero-knowledge.

Hola, evernote-fan, Yep, we at final stages of the development (encryption works fine, user interface tweaks left) and soon we will start beta testing of Android client. You can follow us on twitter (@saferoom_app) where we post updated. I really hope we can release it this September, let's see how beta tests go. Kudos, Ilia

Hola, Using one-time passwords you can now create shared encrypted notes and notebooks in Evernote - have a look at our example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgZLw1JHxS8 Cheers, Ilia

Here are three simple steps to encrypt an Evernote note in Saferoom MacOS:

Another update to Saferoom brings functionality of one-time passwords. That means you can now create encrypted notes and share them with other users without revealing your master passwords. Take a look how easy it is - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgZLw1JHxS8 Here is the detailed video how to use One-Time passwords with Saferoom MacOS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIWPwnQAwcw And here is the demo of Saferoom Windows: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzVEgFj36Es Saferoom iOS is already under review in App Store. I will post the video with one-time passwords in Saferoom iOS as soon as it is approved by Apple.

Hey, a small update for a very important feature in Saferoom: One-time passwords is a new feature in Saferoom that will be available in coming weeks with the new MacOS (v1.2), iOS (v1.2) and Windows versions. Right now there is only one password in Saferoom - we call it a master key or master password. Your master password is stored securely in your device, and is always used for your operations. In general, it means that Saferoom is a single-user application - you use it for your own purposes. Now with one-time passwords you have options - you can either encrypt or decrypt a note using master password, or you can either press or select "One-time password" and enter any different password to encrypt or decrypt current note. This will allow you to share encrypted notes with other people without revealing your own master password - just use one-time password feature and share the note to other people. They in turn can decrypt those notes using the same one-time password feature - Saferoom will just ask them to put password manually during decryption. In the next post you will find the links to the examples.

Hola, Evernoters! We have update our Windows Client - now it is more simple, and clean. Have a look at Saferoom Windows in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TkJZJ2x-7I&index=2&list=PLXqjPvpj-4Xa81 And this is how you can encrypt Evernote notes from an iOS mobile device (iPhone in this case): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQ3u5xwhCkE&list=PLXqjPvpj-4Xa9eHiARHxD5JGci7ztlLbF&index=3&spfreload=10 And here is how you can decrypt Evernote notes (including PDF files) on a mobile device (check the Touch ID Support): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKVFS2SOE4g&index=2&list=PLXqjPvpj-4Xa9eHiARHxD5JGci7ztlLbF&spfreload=10 Saferoom iOS is now available in App Store for just 4.99$ (one-time fee), and Saferoom MacOS and Saferoom Windows are free. Cheers, Ilia

Hey! We are proud to announce the release of Saferoom iOS client - goo.gl/WdmdkY. Now you can encrypt your Evernote notes using any of our free desktop clients and place secure notes into synchronized notebooks and then decrypt any of those notes using Saferoom iOS. You can also create encrypted notes right from your iPhone or iPad. Getting started guide for Saferoom iOS - goo.gl/9qwCHo.

Hey, Evernoters! We have finished our Saferoom MacOS client which you can now download for free from download.com website - http://goo.gl/BCqBxI. You can also have a look how simple it is to completely encrypt your Evernote note with Saferoom: http://goo.gl/U792Kf We are almost finished with our iOS Beta testing - and we are proceeding to release in the middle of April. And then with Saferoom you will enjoy full zero-knowledge encryption on-top of Evernote. As always our updates are on twitter: @saferoom_app

Hi once again, Download Windows version from Softonic: http://en.softonic.com/s/saferoom:windows-mac-iphone-android-windows-phone-7-web-apps/windows Please don't download from CNET (download.com) websites. We are not updating our software there anymore and it takes ages for some reason to remove Saferoom from there.

First of all thanks a lot for kind words and great help that we have recieved from Chris and Evernote community. As correctly mentioned, Saferoom encrypts the content on the client-side, so it will not be indexed at all - that is the purpose of zero-knowledge encryption. Additionally, we have prepared a Windows Desktop Version that will allow you create encrypted notes already next week. We are waiting for approval from CNET download.com website. We decided that it will be better that our software will be checked by third-party systems so users can be sure of it's security and integrity. CNET approval usually takes couple of days, so our deadline is 18.02.2015. I will post update here and on our twitter: https://twitter.com/saferoom_app You can check our Youtube channel where we have already posted Windows functionality. Remember, that is a beta version - and we would love to hear your feedback. And one more thing - we plan to release Saferoom Windows (and MacOS) client for free. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzyNcs_NN5H_JVxZCeR1bFg

Hello, Evernote community, We are a small team of developers and we are passionate about our new product which is Saferoom. We have been working hard to provide users with zero-knowledge encryption functionality without destroying user's productivity. We wanted to build an encryption app that will be easy to use and allow anybody protect their personal data. Saferoom is now a set of mobile and desktop that together add full encryption capabilities on-top of Evernote. It means that you work with Evernote normally, and when you need to create or view an encrypted note you use Saferoom. All the time your encrypted items are part of Evernote notes, but you can see them (e.g. decrypt) only inside Saferoom app. And Evernote is just a beginning - we want Saferoom to be like "Passbook" for your encrypted data. Saferoom encrypts whole note including all the resources - independently of the resource type and your password is stored on the device only. It also means that password cannot be restored - that is a price for true zero-knowledge encryption. Our app is available in iTunes Store: https://itunes.apple.com/app/saferoom-one-app-to-encrypt/id964858486 And in Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.secomsoft.Saferoom Saferoom Desktop for MacOS and Windows are free: https://itunes.apple.com/app/saferoom-zero-knowledge-encryption/id981600236 Windows: http://en.softonic.com/s/saferoom:windows-mac-iphone-android-windows-phone-7-web-apps/windows https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/saferoom-for-windows-81/9nblggh40cdw# And also you can use Saferoom Chrome extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/saferoom/nnphkaehepldgkjgnlnmfmpcjkklibfj?hl=en-US Here is a video demos of Saferoom capabilities: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzyNcs_NN5H_JVxZCeR1bFg/videos?spfreload=10 Any feedback is always welcomed.
