Instructions? #72

I could use some instructions for this. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I can't figure out how to turn it off (aside from pausing) or where the file is actually saved to when using the Private, encrypted storage" option.

Agreed, I will add an explanation. Here's the explanation:

To protect your privacy, Alibi stores its batches into its own private, encrypted storage. This storage is only accessible by Alibi and can\t be accessed by other apps or by a possible intruder. Once you save the recording, you will be asked where you want to save the recording to.

So if you choose the private, encrypted storage option, you are not able to manually view or download the individual batches. If you want to do that, you can use the DCIM option or specify a custom folder.

And regarding your other question:

You can pause, delete / abort the recording and save it.

I'm not sure if I got your question correctly, so if there are any more questions, or you want to elaborate on them, feel free to do so! :)
