Description

Hello,

I really like the application; just was wondering if file encryption could be supported down the line. Maybe some form of using passwords and/or android keystore.

Thanks

Research direction

The issue does not identify any files, tests, encryption format, password flow, or Android Keystore requirements. Start by reviewing the project structure and existing file-operation entry points, then clarify the supported algorithms, key handling, and user workflow. Done should include an agreed scope and tests covering encryption and decryption.
