## What is Shady Encoding?

Shady Encoding turns plain text into fun coded messages using simple, key-based transformations (think classic Caesar-style ciphers).

Create a custom key, encode a message, and share it. To make sharing easy, you can export and import keys using QR codes.

FEATURES
• Encode and decode text with your own keys
• Save and manage multiple keys (name them, reuse them)
• Export keys as a QR code
• Import keys by scanning a QR code
• Copy or share encoded text via the iOS Share Sheet
• Works offline — no account required

IMPORTANT
Shady Encoding is for puzzles, learning, and light obfuscation. It is not secure encryption and should not be used to protect sensitive information.
