DroidFS
DroidFS is an alternative way to use encrypted overlay filesystems on Android that uses its own internal file explorer instead of mounting virtual volumes. It currently only works with gocryptfs but support for CryFS could be added in the future.

Comments and Reviews
If you know gocryptfs (or the Windows port cppcryptfs) then you will like DroidFS. Because it can mount grocryptfs volumes on Android.
Just wanted to share this App with you :) Thanks to the developer! Best regards!
Simple, efficient app. The devs clearly want you to be safe and warn you of any potential risks from certain options. Supports fingerprint sensors, encrypts hundreds of files in seconds and doesn't stop mid-way like other apps do. It uses minimal permissions and it's available on F-droid!
As a free solution, DroidFS can be combined with Sirikali on the desktop side. Another alternative is EDS/Veracrypt combo.
