KodeFile Android – Unshare Keys

Follow the same steps as Share Key to Unshare Keys.

Unsharing a key revokes the Confidant's privilege to decrypt your file. Unsharing a key is immediate.

You can share the key again with the Confidant if necessary.

Note: To audit the use of any key, download the desktop version of KodeFile and select the Key Audit option.
