Dumpster creates a virtual recycle bin that automatically backs up files when deleted. It stores them securely on your device or cloud storage, allowing instant restoration with a single tap. The app scans cache and thumbnails to maximize recovery success.
No, Dumpster works without root privileges for all basic features. The app uses Android's standard file system access to create backups. Premium deep scan capabilities also operate without rooting, making it accessible to all users.
Free version includes basic recycle bin functionality with ads and limited restores. Premium offers unlimited cloud storage, ad-free experience, fingerprint app lock, unlimited deep scan restores, custom themes, and priority support for complete protection.
Premium deep scan can find files deleted before installation by searching cache and thumbnails. However, success depends on whether those sectors have been overwritten. Recently deleted files have higher recovery chances than older deletions.
Dumpster uses encrypted cloud servers to protect your files. Premium subscribers get unlimited storage with end-to-end encryption. Only you can access your backed-up files through your secure account with password or fingerprint authentication.
Dumpster supports Android 5.0 and higher, covering over 95% of active devices. It works on phones and tablets from all major manufacturers. The lightweight design ensures smooth performance even on older or entry-level devices.
