The key data shredding standards implemented by the tool are:

- British HMG IS5 (3 pass)

- US DoD 5220.22 (3 pass)

- Russian GOST P50739 (2 pass)

- NIST 800-88 (2 pass)

- Zero Filler

- One Filler (Secure Erase)

- Random Filler (Pseudo Random Numbers)

File Explorer Integration

While SHREDDIT includes its own lightweight file explorer for easy access to your gallery and personal data, it also integrates well with your device's built-in file manager or any third-party file manager. For example, using ES File Explorer, you can select one or multiple files, go to Share > Shreddit, and the app will shred those files accordingly.

Media Files Preview (Gallery Integration)

The app offers previews of media files to help you better understand the content you want to securely erase. You can use the app with your preferred photo manager, such as Google Photos. Simply select one or multiple images/videos and send them to the shredder for permanent deletion.

Known Limitations

After shredding a media file (video or image) from the gallery, you may still see the image thumbnail. Rest assured that all content in the specified media file has been permanently erased; rescanning your media may sync thumbnails with media content.

To erase the external SD card on a device running KitKat (Android 4.4) or later versions, superuser rights are required, meaning your device should be rooted.

    The app was working just fine until the latest update came along and caused it to malfunction. I was ready to bid it farewell. However, I must say that the developers did an excellent job fixing the issues, and now the app is back to its flawless state. Hats off to them for their quick response in rectifying the problem. Shreddit is my number one choice when it comes to file removal, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking an exceptional file shredding application. A big thank you to the team for their dedication!

    The user interface could be easier for people who are not as familiar with technology, but overall it seems to work as promised. I still need to check if it truly deletes the old data during recovery tests. I will confirm this and update my review later on.

    On the drop menu, there are two options placed side by side: 'Erase all data' and 'Erase free space'. These are the only choices available on the menu. One operation is extremely severe while the other is the least drastic. Surprisingly, I have never mistakenly selected the wrong option during my time using this feature.

    This is a good app. I can't see the shredding task's progress. It's not in the notification panel either. Please add a built-in progress notification feature.

    I found a really awesome free app that can delete x-rated stuff from your phone without leaving any trace. It's the best one out there because other apps either limit how much you can do or make you pay for more features. But this one is completely free and does the job perfectly.

    Compared to typical file shredders or secure deletion tools, this app works quickly. Some might consider it too fast because of its speed. However, there is uncertainty about the app's exact functionality, as there is no information provided on the About page or Help page. Can you describe what mechanism the app employs?

    Wow, fantastic job on your performance! I decided to get a new mobile in exchange for my current one. However, before selling it, I wanted to erase all my data. I read online that even after doing a factory reset, someone could still recover the data. So, I used Shreddit to completely clean everything from my device. It worked like a charm! Thanks so much!

    When you shred your phone, it runs quicker and operates more efficiently, almost like how a computer with MS-DOS or Windows works faster after undergoing the same process.
