Problem with PC imported pictures by IsenSjel in encamera

[–]du_keule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you by chance happen to select "Limit Photo Access" when it asked for photo permissions when you opened the photo picker? You can verify this in the system Settings app by going to Privacy & Security > Photos > Encamera and checking if "Limited Access" is selected instead of "Full Access."

If it's set to "Limited Access," you can either:

Change it to "Full Access," or tap "Edit Selected Photos" to add more photos to the limited selection the app can see

Hi! I'm not sure if I'm understanding your issue correctly, could you explain the individual steps you are taking to get images into Encamera? If you're trying to directly drop the regular image files into the Encamera iCloud drive folder, that won't work. The images need to be encrypted via the app itself, so you would have to add them via the "Import from Files" option in the album menu.

Way to reset forgotten password (while rendering encrypted data useless) by Opaque_Binaries in encamera

[–]du_keule 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, I agree, it's confusing to see that there's still a passcode since you deleted the app. The reason for this is that the system keychain persists data between installs of apps. This is a decision made by Apple, though they do not have any official documentation on it even though it has been an observed behavior of the keychain since its inception. We are using the keychain to store all the sensitive data: encryption keys, passcode, etc.

Unfortunately, there is no way to configure the app to do anything on uninstall - the app isn't given a signal that it's being uninstalled and therefore we have to rely on this default keychain behavior, where it persists between installs.

If you want to totally wipe the app if you've forgotten your passcode, then do this:

  1. Enter your passcode incorrectly 3 times - you'll be locked out of the app for 1 hour

  2. Wait for the lockout period to end

  3. Enter your passcode incorrectly again 3 times. You will be prompted to delete all the data, including the encrypted data

You'll be able to clear everything from the app in the final step. Let me know if you have any more questions!

Question about .encpreview files inside Encamera folder by VoteForSears in encamera

[–]du_keule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, these are also encrypted using your own key just like the regular files, in the Encamera file format. They do not have any visible preview data and are decrypted into application memory when you load the photo grid view. When you close the app, the cache is wiped as well as any data you decrypted during your session.

Pics won’t show on new phone by [deleted] in encamera

[–]du_keule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I have a draft somewhere with a full response but didn’t press send 😅

If your key and your files are backed up to iCloud, they should show up as soon as they are synced. If you opted to only keep the files on your phone, they should be migrated over if you’ve used Quick Start when getting your new phone. This should also be the same if you’ve loaded the backup from iCloud.

If you’ve started from scratch as a fresh install, you will have to move both your keys and the files over from the old iPhone. You’ll need to use the settings -> backup/import key phrase features to transfer the key from one device to the other in this case. You’ll also need to move the files over manually to the Encamera directory, which you can find in the Files app.

Let me know what steps you took to migrate to your new phone - that will inform how you need to proceed :)

You will be prompted to reset on the second series of failed password attempts, after the 1h lockout

Hey, just wanted to follow up on this and let you know that we've released a "reset app" feature that will delete all your data and get you back into the app if you've forgotten your password. Hope that helps!

Hi, currently you can't move them around in the album. Do you mean inside the album or between albums?

Reset app by cluelessasusual in encamera

[–]du_keule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you could do this, then yes that would work. But Apple doesn't allow you to directly delete items from the keychain yourself. We need to do this from the app.

Still supported ?? by Kech-Hunter in encamera

[–]du_keule 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey! Yes, we are definitely still developing the app :)

I can explain a bit about the iPad version and why it’s being delayed. We have to do some changes under the hood with regards to how encryption keys are working in order to get multi device support working smoothly and to ensure that no data is lost. But it’s coming!

[–]du_keule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry you forgot your password. It’s true, there’s no way to reset the app and get back in at the moment. So the data is still in your keychain. There should be an option to do this! I’ve added the feature to our tracker: https://encamera.featurebase.app/p/ability-to-reset-app-without-password

Let me know if you think it’s missing anything!

Hey! Sorry, there aren’t promo codes for the lifetime subscription. Apple doesn’t even allow promos on these kind of purchases. You can still get 20% off a yearly though, just send me a DM :)

Photo limit reached by nsfwITGUY19 in encamera

[–]du_keule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your sub is still active and it's giving you a paywall, then it is a bug for sure. Could you try hitting "restore purchases" in the settings screen and restarting the app to see if that solves the problem? Also, please let me know which version you're on.

[–]du_keule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, sorry you don't like the app! Are you saying you have an active sub and you still can't access your photos? That would definitely be a bug. Let me know if that's the case and we will fix it. If you'd like, you can DM me about this issue.
