idgard® iOS App:Set storage mode

idgard® iOS App:Set storage mode

Remote encryption



Proceed as follows:
  1. Tap Settings at the bottom of the screen.
  2. Switch to the "Data and storage" tab.
  3. Select the type of storage.

Offline mode
You can download files and make boxes or folders available offline on your mobile device. Thus, you can access your boxes without having an internet connection. Working offline, you can read the files available offline and mark them as read. Additionally, you can undo the offline availability of boxes and folders.

Remote encryption
Files are stored to your mobile device but encrypted with key that is retrieved from the server. The key is not stored to your mobile device but must be retrieved from the server each time you open the file. Consequently, the files are not available offline.

No local storage
Files are downloaded for local viewing but immediately deleted after closing. Consequently, the files are not available offline. Your organisation can prescribe which storage modes are available for the members. Depending on the storage mode that you select, further options are availabe.

To define further possible settings
  1. Select Empty storage to delete all files that are made available offline from your mobile device. This option is only available in the storage modes Offline mode and Remote encryption. All files from your boxes that you have stored on your mobile device are deleted. In the Storage usage field, the display of the used memory is set to 0.
  2. Remote wipe. If the automatic deletion of local data has been activated in the administration of the idgard account, this function is automatically activated in the iOS app according to the settings specified by the administrator.
