A great way to protect your messages with a password. The integration with iMessages makes the app very easy to use. Using the app you can encrypt and decrypt password protected messages. It's a simple way to share private information, but it can also be used to have some fun. For example: send a password protected message to your friends and send some tips for the group to guess the password. Or protect multiple message with different passcodes, and share the different passwords at different times. It's also fun to use a set of emojis as a password, and share the text version of the password. ------------- DELETE APP Poll is an iMessage app, so you must use iMessage to uninstall the app. Instructions can be found here: www.bit.do/del-app The instructions: 1.
