We wouldn't be able to provide any specific recommendations. However, if you search for file encryption apps in your search engine, you should find a list of potential apps to use.

Hi!
I am completely new to Dropbox. After downloading thousands of photos, I discovered that Dropbox doesn't have end to end encryption. Would anyone know how I add Boxcryptor to my Dropbox account please? Thank you in advance.

Dropbox bought Boxcryptor and they're in the middle of integrating it into their Business products, due for early release sometime in Q4 with a more public release sometime in Q1 2024. It's not currently possible to use it with a personal account, and Boxcryptor stopped allowing new account registrations last November.

Hi Rich,
