Secrefier is a high-grade privacy and security app built for people who take their data seriously. From encrypting a single message to managing an entire vault of sensitive files, Secrefier gives you full control — with zero data sent to the cloud from your files. Encryption & File Security Encrypt and decrypt text or any file using some of the strongest encryption standards available. Choose your own password, rotate keys anytime, and convert encrypted files between methods with File Rotation. Everything stays on your device. Safe QR Scanner Every QR code you scan goes through a multi-layer threat detection pipeline before you ever touch a link. Our hybrid AI + cloud analysis catches malicious URLs, phishing attempts, and suspicious payloads in real time. For non-URL codes (Wi-Fi, contacts, SMS, phone numbers) Secrefier extracts and displays the content safely. AI Security Hub Powered by on-device machine learning and Cloud AI models, the AI Hub lets you: Chat with a security assistant about threats and best practices Analyze suspicious emails and SMS messages for phishing or scams Scan documents and contracts for hidden risks Detect deepfakes in images Secure Vault Store photos, videos, documents, and audio recordings in an encrypted vault — protected by your password and biometric authentication. Preview files inside the vault without ever decrypting to plain storage. Password & Key Management A built-in password manager and contact key store let you keep credentials and public keys organized. Rotate keys automatically, manage GPG-compatible keys, and use Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) for future-proof protection. Secure Browser Browse links from scanned QR codes or flagged URLs inside Secrefier's built-in secure browser — with threat context always visible. Privacy Tools Metadata Stripper — remove hidden location, camera, and author data from files before sharing Steganography — hide secret messages inside images Breach Monitor — check if your data has been exposed in known breaches Network Scanner — inspect your local network for suspicious devices Secure Data Wiper — instantly destroy sensitive data when you need it gone Deniability Volume — a hidden encrypted container with a plausible decoy Remember! No tool is 100% secure, safety depends on usage. You are the first line of Security! Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
