### 5/5 — Columnar Transposition

*2024-06-25*

Minor issue: The Myszkowski toggle option appears to be switched around

### 5/5 — Noice but small suggestion

*2022-12-17*

This is a pretty cool game but can you add different ciphers? Like rot 11 rot 19 rot 25 and other rots and ciphers?

### 5/5 — Lots of fun!

*2022-10-06, version 1.2*

Lots of fun to play with these classic ciphers! 

Minor issue: The horizontal/vertical setting for the Two Square cipher appears to be reversed.   

Correction: I see now from looking around the web that Two Square cipher implementations vary a bit. 

One request: Please add the skip (jump) cipher.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-10-03, version 1.2*

This app is so great, not only you can encrypt messages with one method but multiple methods at the same time. Only a machine to be used to decrypt then as if you combine three or four methods brute force would take ages

### 5/5 — Really Good

*2020-06-29, version 1.2*

This is such a good app. Hours of fun to be had, and it emulates the WW2 Enigma machine too letting you play around with its settings

### 4/5 — Great!

*2018-11-03, version 1.2*

But the shortcut doesn’t work fully.... but I suspect that’s just my iPad....
