In June, Google was spotted developing a ‘Safe Folder’ for its Files app. Before the feature even got rolled out to users, it got removed with a warning message indicating that the Safe folder is no longer supported. To everyone’s surprise, the software giant has now re-enabled the feature in the latest beta version of the Files app.
You can start using Safe Folder right now if you install Files beta version 1.0.323, which you can get from the Play Store Beta program or APKMirror. In my experience, I was not seeing the Safe Folder right after I installed Google Files 1.0.323. However, it appeared after I manually force closed the app from settings. In case you’re not seeing it, you may try this approach to get Safe Folder in Google Files.
