SSE - Universal Encryption App
Instructions of use, but dated GUI
When it comes to the privacy of personal data and information, too much isn't enough. Regardless of what files you're storing on your phone or tablet, a password and file encryption app is always a good idea. But SSE comes with much more. However, the GUI isn't very convincing, as it would need an upgrade and some work. But the app comes with several customization features and lots of instructions, so anyone could become an encryption specialist in a matter of minutes.
Use the password vault to secure all registration data
The app has four main functions, one of which is the password vault. The whole idea behind it is to make entries with your username and passwords for various accounts, in order to save them in one place, at hand and secured. You can sort passwords and data into several folders, including work and personal.
Text encryptor is another feature with many advantages, and it's also password protected. In fact, everything on this app is password protected, all features are locked. The message encryptor is easy-to-use, type in text and select the encrypt icon to code it. You can copy and paste text to decrypt it or send coded messages to receivers. There are also several encyption styles that you can use.
Encrypt files and generate random passwords
The whole concept behind this app is to encrypt your most personal and sensitive files, securing them from unwanted readers. You can set a padlock to almost any file on your system, compress, rename or delete them. Coded files keep their original name, but receive an extension of .enc, so you'd know which files were encrypted.
Moreover, the app comes with a password generator a clipboard cleaner and application report, which includes data on the app, the number of start-ups and available algorithms for coding. The app also comes with several modes and settings.
