About this app

The app allows you to encrypt or decrypt text with the simple and widely known Caesar cipher. If you have an caesar encrypted text with a unknown key, the application can decrypt the text for you! This might be useful for riddles or geocaching. Furthermore, the algorithm is visualized with an interactive cipher disk which you can export and print to craft your own paper cipher disk.

The cipher is named after the famous roman dictator Gaius Julius Caesar.
It works with a simple substitution mechanism where each letter is replaced by another letter in the alphabet. For example with a right shift of 5 an "A" is replaced with an "F".

Its is a good app.. because its good when you as receiver got an unknown Key for Chiper text..It can auto find plain text base on Key (shift 1-25). Updated : Pop out up shift key doesnt work anymore. You need to manual search all key( 1-25) because the decrypt its self cant be done..from 5 star to 3 star..

Hi, the decryption is dictionary-based. If the input text is not a correct sentence, or the language is different from your device language, the key may not be found. If you already know the language of the encrypted text, you can change the language of the automatic decryption in the settings. If you have any other questions, let me know. ~Philipp

Great app, would be cool if you could customize the alphabet for the inner and outer rings individually. Even without that, this is a really neat app. With good procedures, this can create a really secure cipher.
