Description

Beware: The contents of a file are not cleared when normally deleting a file. Forensic tools and file recovery tools can be used to recover files which have not been securely deleted.


FShred is a simple, handy app that makes deleted files on your internal storage unrecoverable by overwriting all available space with random data. This means recoverable data from deleted files, such as images, videos, databases, is replaced with useless bytes supplied by a random generator.

This app has been tested with multiple file recovery applications such as GT File Recovery and no deleted files could be recovered. If you are still able to recover files after running FShred, please try and run it again.

Please Note: This app does not delete ANY existing files when 'shredding' your internal storage. Your existing data will be unchanged throughout and after the process.

This application contains no advertisements or in app purchases. It is completely free and convenient to use and will remain this way forever.

Additional Features:
• The app acts as a share target so you can securely delete files from your favourite file manager!
• You can now choose which storage device you would like to shred the free space of.
• Tested with multiple recovery/forensic tools.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★FREE SPACE WIPE. I Do NOT See This App Advertised As Being A Shredder . Great App For The Ones That Understand It . Thanks Beta Tester
5 ★Basically writes a dat file over all free space on device ensuring deleted files are overwritten! :)
1 ★Not working on any storage, Pixel, non-rooted.
5 ★Worked on Android 5.0
5 ★No ads. Great.
5 ★It worked great for me
5 ★Emile Gee has the best meme
4 ★It would be great if you could also shred SD card storage. (EDIT: The description says that you can choose which storage to shred, however I am only given the option of shredding the internal memory and not my mounted SD card.) This only shreds internal storage. Also an option for multiple wipes would be good too, but that's just me being lazy.
3 ★Good but lacks custom path like /data/sdext2 for second partitions on sdcards
5 ★Worked for me
5 ★Perfect app
4 ★Thank you for this app. It stops when display turns off. So a keep on display option would be helpful :-)
