Protect text before sending

Turn sensitive text into protected text before you send it.

Write it in Hide My Text, choose an approved destination, and share the protected version through the apps you already use.

  1. Open Hide Text and select Text.
  2. Choose a trusted contact, private group, or broadcast list.
  3. Enter the sensitive text and tap Hide My Text.
  4. Share the protected version through the app you choose.
  5. The intended recipient opens Reveal Text in Hide My Text.

Useful for short sensitive details

Build 71 accepts up to 100 characters per protected text item. Examples include a temporary access detail, a private address, an account reference, or another short message that benefits from local protection. Use sample information in screenshots, demonstrations, and support requests.

Local protection before sharing

The readable text is encrypted locally before it enters the communication app you choose.

Confirm the contact. Compare the safety phrase through a separate trusted method before selecting Trust.

Automatic screen clearing

After successful reveal, build 71 clears the readable text from its screen after 90 seconds. The app's protected Copy action requests iOS local-only clipboard handling with a 30-second expiration.
