FAQ

Q: Does SambaLite support older versions of the SMB protocol like SMB1?

A: For the sake of your network security, SambaLite does not support the legacy SMB1 protocol. We prioritize your safety by ensuring that all connections utilize the much more secure and modern SMB2 and SMB3 standards, preventing your data from being exposed to older, vulnerable protocols.

Q: Is my login information stored securely on my device?

A: Absolutely. We take your security seriously by ensuring that all of your credentials are encrypted using the Android Keystore system. This means your sensitive information is kept safe within your device’s hardware-backed security environment and is never exposed or transmitted anywhere else.

Q: Can I manage multiple network shares within the app?

A: Yes, you can easily manage multiple SMB connections through the app. SambaLite allows you to add various shares and assign them custom aliases so you can keep your home, office, or personal cloud storage organized and easy to identify.
