iSecure seals your messages so only someone who knows the key can read them. Write a secret, pick a key and tap Seal. Send it in iMessage, share it as a QR code, or paste it into any chat, email or note. Your friend opens it with the same key — nobody in between can read it, and your messages are never stored on a server. SEAL AND SEND • Seal right inside iMessage — the live bubble shows your hint and turns to "Opened" • Share as a QR code or as text to WhatsApp, Telegram, Mail or anywhere • Add a hint so your friend knows which key to use OPEN WITHOUT COPY-PASTE • Long-press a secret in any app → Share → Open in iSecure • Scan an iSecure QR code with the iPhone Camera or inside the app • You always choose the key — nothing opens by itself REVEAL SAFELY • Hold to reveal; the text hides again automatically • Revealed secrets are hidden from screenshots and screen recording • Face ID or your passcode before any saved key is used STRONG KEYS • Generate a 5-word passphrase or a random key in one tap • A strength meter warns you about weak keys • Keys live in the secure iOS Keychain on your device only ISECURE PRO Free: 2 saved keys, 30-second auto-hide, ads.
