org-mobile allows you to use some form of encryption when pushing to the
MobileOrg directory. Encrypts and works fine. The issue is that the
mobile app has a password setting to unencrypt but there is no
protection on the app itelf meaning anyone can read the org files from
thje mobileorg app itself kind of defeating the object since dropbox has
its own encrption based on id/pasword anyway. I realise I can encrypt
org entries myself (I do) using gpg keys but since there is no built in
gpg decryption facility in mobileorg thats hard work (you need to copy
the encrypted entries to oPenGPG which does feature app pin protection and
holds my secret key (which needs a password too)).

Is there a way to protect the mobileorg app? Or do I need to manually remove
the password from the mobileorg settings each time?
