Paranoia Text Encryption PRO +4

Unique amongst the encryption apps I've seen on the Apple App Store. It's the session by session of text and files, with infinite number of passwords/keys, that makes this special compared to the proliferation of password managers, etc. that are out there. You also have a wide choice of encryption methods. Most of those apps are encrypted "storage safes". This is way different than that. And the level of encryption available is more than enough for most people, particularly if you use a long phrase salted with random numbers and special characters standing in for letters to generate the encrypted text. And do check out the desktop version. Where you can not only encrypt text you can create steganograms to hide your newly encrypted text. Bravo developer!

This is truly one of the most amazing and useful apps I own. It works flawlessly and provides a level of security not found in any other similar app. I also find it to be highly flexible regarding importation and exportation of data, albeit for some there may be a slight learning curve. The fact it integrates with the online versions and across multiple device platforms is very useful considering secrets may need to be shared between devices. I cannot say enough about my love of this app, and it’s a steal considering the low one-time fee.

I was impressed how easy it is to encrypt or decrypt a message with this app. They explain their algorithm on their website in great detail.

Now I have another tool for asymmetric encryption and this one for symmetric encryption. The advantage of symmetric is that you just have to agree on a password - no need to exchange public keys.
