## What is Cipherly Secure Messaging?

**Cipherly Secure Messaging gives you powerful privacy tools for protecting text, photos, and conversations before they ever leave your device.**

Encrypt messages and images with strong AES-256-GCM encryption, hide secret text inside ordinary-looking photos using steganography, and share protected content through the apps you already use.

Cipherly adds a private encryption layer to your existing communication workflow. Create a conversation, choose or generate a strong passphrase, then encrypt your content before sending it through Messages, Mail, or other sharing apps.

Your recipient simply uses the same passphrase in Cipherly to decrypt the content.

### PRIVATE MESSAGING, YOUR WAY

Cipherly is designed around one simple idea: your private information should remain under your control.

• Encrypt text before sending
• Encrypt photos and images
• Hide messages inside images with steganography
• Decrypt incoming Cipherly messages and images
• Reveal hidden text from Cipherly steganographic images
• Create separate conversations with unique passphrases
• Secure access with Face ID
• Share encrypted content through Messages, Mail, and other apps

### AES-256-GCM ENCRYPTION

Cipherly uses AES-256-GCM encryption through Apple’s CryptoKit framework to protect your content with modern authenticated encryption.

Each Cipherly conversation can use its own unique passphrase, helping keep separate conversations independently protected.

### STEGANOGRAPHY

Sometimes protecting a message means more than encrypting it.

Cipherly can embed hidden text inside an image using steganography. The image can still appear like an ordinary picture, while Cipherly can detect and reveal the hidden message when the correct passphrase is provided.

### YOUR KEYS. YOUR CONTROL.

Cipherly does not require your private messages to pass through a Cipherly messaging server.

Instead, Cipherly encrypts your content locally before you share it using the communication apps you already use.

Passphrases can be securely stored using the iOS Keychain, and you remain in control of how they are shared.

### BUILT FOR PRIVACY

Cipherly is designed so that plaintext messages and unencrypted images do not need to be permanently stored as part of your protected Cipherly conversations.

Encrypted content remains protected until you choose to decrypt it.

Optional Face ID protection adds another layer of privacy when opening Cipherly or accessing private conversations.

### SIMPLE SECURE SHARING

1. Create a conversation.
2. Generate or enter a strong passphrase.
3. Share that passphrase with your intended recipient through a trusted channel.
4. Write a message or select a photo.
5. Your content is automatically encrypted.
6. Share it through Messages, Mail, or another app.
7. Paste or share the encrypted reply back into the matching Cipherly conversation to decrypt it.

Both sender and recipient must use the same passphrase.

### NOT ANOTHER MESSAGING NETWORK

Cipherly is not trying to replace Messages, Mail, or your favorite communication apps.

Instead, it adds an additional privacy layer inside the tools you already use.

No new social network.
No new messaging ecosystem.
No need to convince everyone you know to switch platforms.

Just encrypt, share, and decrypt.

### PROTECT MORE THAN TEXT

Private conversations can contain more than words.

With Cipherly you can protect:

• Messages
• Photos
• Images
• Hidden text inside images
• Shared encrypted content

Whether you are protecting personal conversations, sensitive photos, private notes, or information you simply do not want exposed, Cipherly gives you simple tools to add another layer of protection.

**Your messages. Your photos. Your passphrases. Your privacy.**

**Cipherly Secure Messaging — private communication, protected before you send it.**
