james colinAxcrypt IS THE BEST ONE FOR THIS PURPOSE
james colingreat to see AxCrypt is expanding its market to iOS users. excited to use there services
JackIf you’re looking for intuitive and powerful editing software for your iPhone or iPad, CapCut for iOS is a fantastic option. Much like AxCrypt simplifies file encryption, CapCut simplifies video editing with its user-friendly interface and advanced features. It’s perfect for creating polished videos with ease, whether you’re a beginner or a pro.
Audrey GraceIt’s great that AxCrypt is offering an open beta for iOS! If you’re looking to enhance the images or screenshots you share during the testing phase, you can try using online tools to improve them. You can try now to improve image quality and make them clearer, which might help with any reports or feedback you want to provide during the beta testing.

John Don EnglishIt’s exciting to see AxCrypt’s iOS expansion, making secure file access readily available on mobile devices. This convenience is invaluable. I’ve also been utilizing Terabox IOS for storing larger files, finding it incredibly helpful to have this easily accessible storage alongside encryption tools like AxCrypt. This combination provides an extra layer of security, ensuring my data remains protected.
HarryThe introduction of AxCrypt’s iOS app for viewing encrypted files on the go is an exciting development for anyone needing secure file access while traveling. For users looking to enhance their digital security and learn more about data encryption tools, a solid understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) can be invaluable. Enrolling in artificial intelligence short courses could provide key insights into how AI can improve encryption technologies and help manage security more effectively.
Dorothy LeeI want to use this beta testing for my vape shop business. I also have send email to this mentioned gmail, but no response. Now kindly do lemme know what should I do next.
arshadteatv Finally, AxCrypt is indeed mostly suited for data transmitted over the Internet (i.e. email attachments), or stored remotely (i.e. cloud services, backups). For local device security I do indeed generally recommend full disk encryption or possibly file system level encryption such as Windows EFS, which is often well complemented by file encryption such as AxCrypt beetv

boitinhyeuI’ve been following this conversation and I’d like to add a couple of points regarding iOS security and the use of AxCrypt for mobile devices.
Firstly, I completely agree with the need for additional layers of security beyond just device PINs, especially for sensitive files. While AxCrypt provides solid encryption for files, I think it’s essential to also rely on the inherent security of the iOS device itself. AxCrypt has designed its mobile app with the assumption that the device itself is secure, and this is why they haven’t integrated features like a mandatory sign-out option. However, if you’re concerned about unauthorized access, you can enable “Erase Data” on your iOS device after multiple failed passcode attempts, which adds an extra layer of protection.
I also understand the concerns around “always being signed in.” Personally, I’ve been using AxCrypt for some time now, and for highly sensitive files, I make sure my device encryption is enabled, and I use a PIN or Touch ID for added security. While it may not be perfect, AxCrypt remains one of the best choices for encrypting files before sending or storing them remotely, particularly with cloud services.
boitinhyeuAs someone who’s worked extensively with encryption solutions across both desktop and mobile platforms, I’d like to commend the AxCrypt team for taking a practical, user-centric approach with AxCrypt 2 on iOS. The debate about “depth of protection” is valid, especially in environments where multiple people may handle the same device, even momentarily. However, we have to recognize the security architecture of mobile OSes — iOS in particular — where full control of session behavior is limited without compromising usability.
A middle ground, in my view, is to implement optional features such as Idle Timeout Logout and PIN/biometric re-authentication upon each app launch. These wouldn’t replace iOS-level encryption but would enhance security for high-sensitivity use cases without frustrating the average user.
Also, let’s not forget: AxCrypt’s model is not for full disk encryption or local threat mitigation — it’s most effective when complementing device-level encryption, especially for cloud-sharing or remote collaboration. For users who require higher granularity or enterprise-grade control, tools like Tresorit or Cryptomator might be more appropriate, as Lucas rightly pointed out.
Looking forward to seeing AxCrypt evolve with community feedback — the commitment to development is clear and appreciated.
boitinhyeuAfter reviewing the entire thread and testing the AxCrypt iOS beta myself, I’d like to contribute a security-focused perspective that may help clarify the concerns raised—especially around persistent login and device-level protection.
Firstly, the AxCrypt team’s reliance on device encryption (PIN, Face ID, Touch ID) is standard practice across mobile security ecosystems. However, I agree with Robin and others that a layered security approach (“https://boitinhyeu.net.vn/”) is essential, especially when sensitive files are involved.
A practical solution would be to introduce configurable session timeout and idle logout options within the app settings. This balances convenience with stronger user-side control. Even integrating a PIN-only reauthentication for AxCrypt app access—independent of device unlock—could enhance security without compromising usability.
Secondly, for those needing a stricter zero-trust model, I recommend complementing AxCrypt with full-device encryption (which most modern iOS versions already enforce by default), and where necessary, combining with secure cloud platforms like Tresorit for real-time collaboration with audit trails.
In summary, AxCrypt’s direction toward seamless cloud integration is valuable, but users working with highly sensitive content should apply multiple safeguards, not rely on device-level encryption alone. I appreciate the transparency from Svante and the honest dialogue in this thread—it’s how good security tools become even better.
boitinhyeuAs someone who’s worked extensively with mobile data security and encryption models, I’d like to add a perspective here.
While AxCrypt’s mobile app does rely heavily on the device’s inherent encryption (which, on iOS, is robust), I strongly agree with the community’s request for depth in protection layers—especially the ability to enable re-authentication (PIN, Touch ID, Face ID) on each app access or after idle time.
A balanced solution could be implementing session timeouts with optional biometric/PIN re-entry, giving users control over their preferred level of protection without sacrificing usability. Many secure apps like https://boitinhyeu.net.vn/ and SpiderOak already implement this model effectively. It aligns well with iOS security best practices and user expectations, particularly for those handling high-sensitivity files on mobile.
From a user-experience standpoint, this wouldn’t complicate things for casual users, but would provide peace of mind for advanced users looking for layered security without having to rely solely on device-level encryption.
Kudos to the AxCrypt team for being transparent and receptive. This feature—if added—would definitely enhance the app’s trust profile and practical value in real-world mobile scenarios.
