encrypted messages

Scrambled secret transmissions

Encrypted messages are communications converted into code to prevent unauthorized reading.

The original text (plaintext) is scrambled using mathematical algorithms, readable only by someone with the correct key to decrypt it.

The app uses end-to-end encryption, so only the sender and recipient can read the messages.

Encryption protects everything from private texts to financial transactions.
