Decent

It’s not too bad but it’s a bit confusing

UI issues but could be great app

On all screen that require keyboard entry the app fails to operate and the keyboard never goes away which makes it unusable

Crashes

App closes when I try to utilize the decrypt! Bummed out

Nice, versatile, no problems

I use ciphers with students when we do escape room like activities. I keep looking for a robust but simple app to help speed up the process. I really appreciate the simplicity for both the Caesar and Vigenere Ciphers. The Enigma is nice too but definitely requires some prior knowledge and experience to work. I haven’t played with the Mod Calculator. Would like to know if there is an Android version I could recommend to others.

Would use if it worked

Same as the previous review. Won’t go past the load screen
