Sealed Bundles protects several files in one authenticated encrypted package. Reopen a bundle, verify its complete contents and prepare recovered files only when you choose. HOW TO USE THE UPGRADE 1. Open Sealed Bundles, select files and enter a strong secret. Seal the bundle and share the encrypted package. 2. To verify or recover, choose Open a bundle, select the package and enter its secret. A just-created bundle can be opened directly for verification. 3. Authenticate the whole bundle before preparing recovered files for sharing. Clear the workspace when finished. Secret text, encrypted single-file workflows and the existing Hush tools remain available. Bundles are opened through Sealed Bundles; they are not ZIP archives. WHAT TO KNOW One to 12 files, up to 20 MB combined raw data. The existing HUSHF2 format uses AES-256-GCM and PBKDF2-SHA256 with 600,000 iterations. The secret cannot be recovered by the developer. Encrypted filenames and contents are authenticated; the outer file reveals the bundle format. Recovered exports are ordinary independent files. Clear removes this workspace’s temporary copies; it is not guaranteed secure erasure of storage or previously shared copies. iPhone and iPad. No account required.
