Had numerous reports on Google Play comments that external SD card no longer works.

This should be easy to fix in 5.0

Thanks for encdroid. Its a awesome app and helps me keep all my files safe.

In android kitkat, google has changed the way apps can access SDcard. I store my encrypted files on SDcard. This helps me to move files between different phones and also to computer easy.

Currently I can import already existing files from external SDcard to encdroid and view them. I cannot modify or add new files. This is because of changes in kitkat.

Can you please update the app with SDcard permission fix. Currently I use a workaround which gives full access to SDcard for all apps. This is considered a security risk.

Once again, thank you for a wonderful app.

Thanks,
