encryption and decryption is the app's internal functionality. user
has nothing to do with this
i encrypt the file on 1st run and on 2nd run i check if file is there
then decrypt and show.
so only thing i understand is to store the key somewhere in the app so
i can access it for decryption.
just wondering if this help
File  keyFile = new File("data/data/package name/key");

i followed this link for encryption and decryption
