I was searching for a good Gallery App which encrypts my photos locally. Never found a good open source one. I was using EDS for a long time but it is an encrypted container, so it was not comfortable for me. I am using Photok now, it does what I need, it encrypts/decrypts my photos in a comfortable way (, so the GUI is clean and simple).

Just wanted to share this App with you :)

Best regards!

I really love the simplicity. You give your vault a password - and that's it. You can start importing your photos, they will get encrypted. Done! I really been on the lookout for something like this!
