Secret Text vs Private Note Encrypted

Secret Text is a secure text translator, not a chat app. Download free and use one contact with unlimited encryption, decryption and fingerprint verification. A one-time Pro purchase unlocks unlimited contacts. No trial or subscription is required. It encrypts your plaintext into ciphertext that you can copy and paste through any messaging app (iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, WeChat, etc.), and decrypts ciphertext back into plaintext on the other end. How it works: 1. Add a contact and complete a guided handshake to establish an encrypted session 2. Verify identity fingerprints through a trusted channel 3. Type your message -> tap "Encrypt & Copy" -> paste the ciphertext into any messenger 4. Receive ciphertext -> tap "Paste & Decrypt" -> read the plaintext Security: - End-to-end encryption powered by Signal Protocol (X3DH + Double Ratchet) - AES-256-CBC with HMAC-SHA256 for every message - Per-message forward secrecy: compromising one key cannot decrypt past or future messages - Out-of-order message decryption support - Identity fingerprint verification through a trusted channel - All keys are generated and stored locally on your device Features: - Works with any messaging platform, no need to switch apps - Guided handshake wizard with step-by-step instructions - Contact management with session status at a glance - One free contact; one-time Pro purchase for unlimited contacts - Supports English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese - Available on iOS and macOS with cross-platform session compatibility - Dark mode support Your messages stay private, no matter which messenger you use.

Private Note lets you send a secret message that self-destructs the moment it is read. Your message is encrypted on your device with AES-256-GCM before it ever leaves. We only ever store unreadable ciphertext — never your text or your key. The instant the recipient opens it, it is permanently deleted. No copies, anywhere. WHY PRIVATE NOTE • Zero-knowledge: our servers never see your message or your key • Read once, then gone forever — no recovery, no archive, no backup • No accounts, no phone number, no tracking, no ads • Unread messages auto-expire after 7 days • All data stored and processed in the EU (GDPR-compliant) HOW IT WORKS 1. Write your secret and choose an encryption key 2. Create a secure link — only ciphertext is uploaded 3. Share the link, and give the key separately 4. The recipient opens it once, enters the key, and the message is destroyed PERFECT FOR Passwords, API keys, access codes, private messages — anything you don't want lingering in an inbox or chat history. Reading notes others send you is always free. A Private Note Premium subscription unlocks unlimited secure-link creation. SUBSCRIPTION Private Note Premium is an auto-renewable monthly subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at purchase confirmation. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
