![]() ![]() While still early, we're excited to continue development on our in-house encrypted file storage solution, and will share updates on our progress along the way. Once the files are imported into FileSafe, other visitors of your mac wont be able to browse or find them, while you can still open them using this app. It keeps your personal photos, videos or documents out of sight. While keeping FileSafe around seems like a viable option, FileSafe's reliance on third parties like Dropbox for core functionality results in a precarious and fragile arrangement resulting in sudden API shifts that break our integrations and require recalibration at unannounced intervals. FileSafe is a secret vault of your private files. Much has changed since then, and we're glad to announce we're now in a position to invest in our own secure files solution, which is well underway and in development. ![]() This architecture allowed us to focus on building a frontend solution without requiring the heavy infrastructure required to build a scalable backend file-hosting architecture, which we weren't yet ready to undertake in 2018. Because of the work on native Files, FileSafe as of recently is deprecated. This means that files are encrypted by us but stored in your Dropbox or Google Drive. FileSafe as an extension was one of the overlooked and most unmaintained aspects of the app, with occasional errors when trying to upload or download a file to different services. For existing users who have the FileSafe extension installed, FileSafe will remain accessible indefinitely.įileSafe was launched in 2018 as our concept file storage solution, and uses a bring-your-own-cloud model to store your files. Starting February 9, 2022, FileSafe will be deprecated and no longer offered to new users. ![]()
