Description
Pocket PGP brings OpenPGP encryption to your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Silicon Mac: secure, direct, and private.
Create, import, and manage PGP keys directly on your device. Encrypt, decrypt, sign, and verify messages with greater privacy and control. Core cryptographic operations run locally on your device, without relying on external servers for the actual encryption and decryption process.

Pocket PGP is channel-independent. Encrypt or sign your content first, then share or send it through email, messaging apps, notes, cloud drives, or any other channel.
Regular file encryption uses OpenPGP-compatible file encryption. For larger files, Chunk Mode creates Pocket PGP .ppgp packages. These packages are app-specific and can be opened with Pocket PGP.
The app can be downloaded and tested for free. The free version is limited to a maximum of two stored keys.
