This is the universal build of BestCrypt Explorer 2.01.06. It contains native libraries for every CPU architecture (arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64), so it installs on any Android device. The trade-off is size — it's larger than per-architecture variants. Pick this one if you're unsure which CPU your phone has, or if you plan to share the APK with multiple devices.

App Description
Android file encryption is easy and powerful with BestCrypt Explorer, a mobile file manager on Android with a separate storage space where all your data is encrypted (music, video, audio tracks, text files, photos).
How does it work? Simple!
Once files are moved to the secure storage, they can only be accessed after entering the proper password. Following that step, you can then use the data in the secure storage for any purpose – view photos, listen to music, read documents or create new files.
More than just an Android file manager, BestCrypt Explorer is also an extension of BestCrypt Container Encryption – Jetico’s long-trusted file encryption solution for laptops, desktops and servers. In addition to using BestCrypt across Windows, Linux and Mac computers, now you can access BestCrypt encrypted containers on your Android mobile device as well!
For encrypted cloud storage and a fully integrated experience, BestCrypt users can upload their encrypted storage to cloud services like Dropbox or Google Drive.

Frequently Asked Questions about BestCrypt Explorer APK
This is the universal variant — a single APK that contains native libraries for every CPU architecture. It installs on any Android device but is larger than per-architecture variants.
Yes — the APK's signature has been cryptographically verified against the publisher's signing key. The SHA-256 hash is shown in the File Information panel so you can independently confirm the file matches the original release.
Android 26 (API level 36) or newer. Older devices will refuse the install.
Install a free app like 'CPU-Z' or 'Droid Hardware Info' from the Play Store and look at the ABI / Instruction Set row. Most phones made after 2017 are arm64-v8a; if in doubt, download the universal variant.
All variants are functionally identical — same features, same version. They differ only in which CPU architectures the native code is compiled for, and (sometimes) which screen densities the included graphics target. Pick the one that matches your device for the smallest install size, or pick 'Universal' if you're unsure.
