About this app

Polybius Square Cipher is a compact learning app for the classical 5x5 Polybius square.

Encode text into row-and-column coordinates, decode coordinates back into letters, and practise with short training challenges. I and J share position 24, and decoding 24 returns I.

Features:
- Encrypt and decrypt with live results
- Built-in letter and coordinate keyboards
- 5x5 square reference
- Training modes: Identify Coordinates, Decode Words and a 60-second Speed Round
- XP, accuracy and streak saved on your device
- Light and dark themes
- Works offline, no account needed

Important: Polybius is a historical teaching cipher. It does not provide modern encryption or confidentiality, and should not be used for passwords, financial details or sensitive messages.
