Feds must be downvoting this app

Because it’s so easy and useful

invalid key format

bug... it isnt invalid

Incompatible avec Telegram

Il n’est pas possible de copier un message chiffré dans Telegram ni d’envoyer la clé car le message n’est pas transmis correctement du fait de la pub « Comment download… » en début de message.
J’invite le créateur de cette app à essayer !

Unable to decrypt

It speaks for itself

Doesn’t work

It won’t let you decrypt the messages. Says invalid code. Do any of these pgp apps even work

Great PGP tool

Loved this one but now it has a huge ad that pops up on anything encrypted by the app which is so obnoxious

Good basic PGP app

The app provides good basic PGP functionality. The app should be useful for the intermediate user who doesn’t need more advanced features. Overall, the functionality is good, with the main functions of encrypting/decrypting, signing/verifying, and key generation/importing/exporting being present. The UI is simple to navigate. The strength of the key is RSA 3072, which is less than the maximum 4096, but should be sufficiently strong for most purposes. I did not see a way to create different strength keys or types, such as DSA, ECDSA, or EdDSA. There is no ending date/time for generated keys, which is not necessarily the optimal option, but is understandable for more basic users. I did not see an option to set an end date, which would be a better option.

Regarding security, one needs to be cognizant that apps such as these do house your private key, so there is an element of trust that is needed when using such an app. Also, we don’t know how robust and secure the key generation is performed. Without seeing the source code, one has to rely on the developer’s assurance that everything is kosher and performed in a way that does not create unacceptable risk. In the general sense, I would avoid using phone/tablets for anything of a sensitive nature if at all possible. So, apps like these present a certain level of convenience at the price of reduced security; the nature of the beast in security.

Fast and Reelable for iOS

It works great!
So far I haven’t encountered any bugs.
Thumbs up for that :)
5/5

Poor security choices

The private key and passphrase always visible in clear text. Private key can be used without the passphrase. App is wide open to anyone with physical access.

Looks nice, but can’t use modern keys.

I wasn’t able to import an ECC key. Bit of a blocker.

Не работает

Раньше было классное приложение, а сейчас перестали работать. Включается на секунду потом вылетает

Do Not Use If In The UK

Keys are backed up to iCloud which by law are not encrypted now. (App should mention this)

Mieux que rien

Bonne application pour du petit chiffrement

Inutile

L’import de clés générés via gpg ne fonctionne pas

Обман

Установил ключ и произошёл взлом)

Not bad, but….

Works great, but it would be nice to be able to import a keypair from an ASCII armored file instead of having to cut & paste.

Hey, it works.

Not complicated at all. Very good for encryption.

Не работает

Приложение открывается на пару секунд и сразу закрывается, хотелось бы узнать причину проблемы!

Unbelievable

You can't import

Печалька

Key format invalid. Все, что удалось выжать из приложения при импорте ключа. Я так понял поддерживается только rsa. Печалька конечно.
