Before i got the FP5 with iode os on it, i used a wileyfox swift with cyanogen mod.  
In the original cyanogen file manager there was a funktion to create/have a safe folder.  
Is in iode a similar funktion?  
If not, is in f-droid a file manager with this funktion?

I may need a bit of an explanation to better understand your meaning: safe from whom or in what scenario would your normal `userdata` not be safe? (your userdata is encrypted by default with modern Android)

There are personal informatians eg passwords, bank account datas,… i store in a special file. This file is stored in the fone with a 4 numbers pin code. I would like to encypt this file. The old file manager has a Special folder with own password, where i can Store sensible datas.

You could try a note-taking app that supports encryption, such as [NoteSR - Encrypted Notes](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/app.notesr/)
