FiLiX is a powerful, privacy-focused desktop utility that combines essential file conversion, compression, encryption, and security tools into a single application. It supports commonly used file formats across audio, video, images, documents, archives, and raw binary data, making it ideal for everyday users, developers, and content creators. Key features include: • Audio, video, image, document, and archive conversion • File compression and size optimization • Password-based encryption and decryption • Raw file encoding and decoding with secure input • Lightweight code editor for copying, editing, and converting source files • Image watermarking (text and visual overlays) • Heuristic file scanning for basic anomaly detection FiLiX is built with modern technologies and runs fully offline, ensuring that your files remain private and under your control at all times. FiLiX does not collect analytics, telemetry, or personal data. All processing is performed locally on the user’s system. FiLiX runs in a strict Snap sandbox and only accesses files explicitly selected by the user. Trust is our foundation — FiLiX operates fully offline by design and includes no functionality to collect, upload, or transmit user files or user data. Note: The archive utility currently supports documents and program-related files only. Media files (images, videos), installers, and certain archive formats are not supported for creation or extraction at this time. Note: Heuristic scanning is experimental and does not guarantee detection of tracking, malware, or hidden code.It classifies files based on structure, format, and potential execution capability.Tracking detection is based on static file analysis only and does not inspect runtime behaviour or network traffic. This is not a malware or spyware detector. Note: Encryption terminology in the app UI is descriptive. FiLiX uses strong, password-based encryption implemented at the application level. It is not advertised as a certified or audited cryptographic product. ### Package name * filix --- ### License * Proprietary --- ### Last updated * 10 January 2026 - latest/stable --- ### Websites * [github.com/void-blanc/Curious](https://github.com/void-blanc/Curious "https://github.com/void-blanc/Curious") --- ### Contact * [grimreaper00.557@gmail.com](mailto:grimreaper00.557@gmail.com "mailto:grimreaper00.557@gmail.com") --- ### Donations * [pay.oxapay.com](https://pay.oxapay.com/12288437 "https://pay.oxapay.com/12288437") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/void-blanc/Curious/issues](https://github.com/void-blanc/Curious/issues "https://github.com/void-blanc/Curious/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/filix/kubuntu#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on Kubuntu and install FiLiX utility suite Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build.
