About this app

BaconCipher encodes and decodes the Baconian cipher, the 400-year-old method that turns every letter into a group of five A and B symbols. It suits puzzle makers, escape-room designers and anyone curious about classic cryptography.

• Encode text into five-symbol groups, or decode them back into readable words
• Choose the modern 26-letter alphabet or the traditional 24-letter one where I=J and U=V
• Write the code as A/B, 0/1 or your own two custom symbols
• Hide a secret inside ordinary English text by switching letters between upper and lower case
• Get clear notes when digits or punctuation are skipped or a group is malformed
• Copy or share the result, and save named setups to reuse later
• Check the built-in reference table for every letter's code
