FAQ
What is SSSS Mobile?
SSSS Mobile is a productivity app that implements Shamir's Secret Sharing Scheme. It allows users to split a short secret text into multiple shares that can be reconstructed later when a specified threshold of shares is available.
How does SSSS Mobile work?
You can input a secret text (up to 128 characters), and the app will split it into a set number of shares. These shares can then be distributed via QR codes or plain text. To reconstruct the secret, you need to provide the exact threshold number of shares.
What are the use cases for SSSS Mobile?
Potential uses include securely sharing passwords for cryptocurrency private keys, splitting important messages for group decoding, or hiding QR codes of strong passwords in multiple physical locations.
Can I use SSSS Mobile offline?
The description does not explicitly state offline functionality, but the core mechanics of splitting and reconstructing secrets do not inherently require an internet connection. Shares can be generated and stored locally.
What is the character limit for secrets in SSSS Mobile?
The secret message must be 128 characters or less. For larger secrets, it is recommended to encrypt the content first and then use SSSS Mobile to split the password used for encryption.
Does SSSS Mobile have ads?
No, SSSS Mobile does not contain advertisements. The app is free to download and use without any ad interruptions.
What devices is SSSS Mobile compatible with?
SSSS Mobile is available for iPhone, iPad, and iPod devices. It is designed to run on Apple's iOS ecosystem.
How often is SSSS Mobile updated?
