Encipher It ! 1.0.0.0

Use a threefold text encryption method to safely send out messages or store documents
The privacy concerns many have when it comes to sending emails or SMS messages to people they know may or may not be founded, but, as a precautionary measure, encoding the texts before sending them out, especially if they contain personal or important information, might be a good idea.

To carry out such tasks, dedicated utilities have to be used and there are quite a few of those for Windows Phone users to pick and install onto their devices. Encipher It ! is one of the possible choices and it comes with3 types of ciphers you can try.

Dull looks for a practical layout

This app certainly doesn't stand out through any appearance related feature as it has a plain aspect, completely unadorned and made exclusively for practical use.

Going through the various sections of the app is very smooth, without any lags or some other kind of glitch of the same sort. The main functions are kept in plain sight, easy to access and use, while the main menu hosts some useful commands, mainly for managing the content.

Try out 3 different ciphers to pick the one for you

Encipher It ! is equipped with several methods of encryption, more precisely a Bacon cipher, a ROT47 and a Venegere one, each hosted inside a separate area of the application.

In case you are curious about the way in which any of these works, simply tap the info button from the main menu and a short description will appear immediately.

If adding the text in the corresponding input area is extremely simple, making a selection is particularly tricky with this utility. Thus, you will need to tap and hold the screen to avoid swiping to the next area when dragging the text selector, so it is mainly a two hand job to highlight and copy some bit of text.

Instant encryption and decryption, with very basic sharing options

This application makes it very easy for anyone to cipher and then decode text with two taps, the only exception in this respect being the Venegere encryption that will also require the key used for encrypting the content.

As soon as the text is encoded, you can use the "mail" button to have it included in an email message, ready to be sent out. There is no possibility of copying the ciphered bits from inside this utility, so you will have to do that from the email client if you want to send or use encrypted text otherwise.

Bottom Line
Design / UI2
 

Totally unappealing and lacking any elements of design that could be deemed as remotely appealing, Encipher It ! loses a lot from the visual perspective.

Function3
 

The features offered by this app are basic and there is no advanced functionality in sight, while even the text selection is faulty and the transfer options very limited.

Security10
 

There should be absolutely no reasons worry when it comes to installing this application as it is very discreet.

Battery6
 

Despite its minimalistic look, Encipher It ! seems to need quite a bit of power to run, as it has a high battery usage.

Price10
 

There are no nuisances inside the app and everything is provided freely, so the overall value is excellent.

Compatibility10
 

Any Windows Phone powered handset can be used to try out this application, starting with those that have version 7 of the operating system installed.
