# Import Documents

{% hint style="info" %}
Support for any file type is available from Version 5.2.1.1 Gemini and currently available exclusively for Android devices
{% endhint %}

## Let's protect documents

Log in to your Vault, select :heavy\_plus\_sign: in the bottom right and tap *Hide photos and documents*.

Swipe right or select the **Files tab**. Select any folder or document you'd like to add to your Private Vault. Submit your selection with the *Import Button* at the bottom.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip:** Select a folder to import containing files and sub-folders. LockMyPix will keep the original directory structure
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Top Tip:** Send a file from any other app to LockMyPix to import it directly. For example from a file manager app
{% endhint %}

## Open a document

Select the document from your Vault and tap on open. LockMyPix shows all installed apps that can open the document.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you can't open a document for some reason, for example a PDF or TXT, simply open the Google Play Store and look for an app that can handle the file type
{% endhint %}

Mind that LockMyPix doesn't grant access to your encrypted files. If you change a file from outside LockMyPix, just reimport that to have the changed file securely stored inside your Vault.
