The described functionality involves a software application designed to maintain synchronized, encrypted data between a cloud storage service (pCloud) and a mobile device (iPhone). This typically entails employing Cryptomator, an open-source client-side encryption software, to secure files before and after they are transferred to and from pCloud. The application would then automate the process of transferring these encrypted files, ensuring that the local iPhone directory and the pCloud folder contain identical, up-to-date copies.
Such a setup provides several benefits. It allows for secure data storage on a cloud platform while ensuring data privacy through encryption. Synchronization allows users to access the most current versions of files from both their iPhone and other devices connected to pCloud. Historically, implementing such a system required manual steps and technical expertise, but modern applications aim to streamline this process for ease of use.
