App save space useless?

HI.

I find in the App secure file manager the notification that,

This app is useless if you have a rooted device “

At the explanation why we fond >

When an file is hidden, the file is moved from the “shared storage” to the “app-specific storage”. When an file is unhidden, the file is moved from the “app-specific storage” to the “shared storage”.

In case of rooted device, all applications can see the “app-specific storage”.

So, the app save space is useless for the same reason ?

Mentioned in app description. From security prospective yes useless for you if you’re not a root user.
It’s same as saying Chess game apps are useless if you don’t know how to play.

There are many such apps on F-Droid e.g. Restoid, WiFi Exporter etc.

??

They in formed it,s useless if you ARE a root user.

Got it. It means root users can access whatever they want.
I guess apps like Anomo or Aer, Safe Space are also useless if you’re rooted.

Well observed.

That wars my initial question …:upside_down_face:
