Web v1.2 — Asian Language Bundle, Independent Decryption Guide, and Clear Warning Improvements
Encrypt & Decrypt Data Utility Tool — Web v1.2
A fully self-contained, browser-based encryption and decryption utility. No installation required. Everything runs locally in your browser — nothing is transmitted, stored, or logged.
This release expands web language support with the Asian language bundle, adds links to the independent decryption guide, and improves the clear-button warning so it is more obvious when the clipboard will be wiped.

🧭 Independent decryption
The linked Independent Decryption Guide documents how the encrypted output is structured and how to decrypt messages without this web app, using standard command-line tools.
Guide:
https://amandahernow.github.io/EncryptionDecryptionUtilityTool/decryption-guide.html
This is useful for long-term access, transparency, and verification. Your data is yours, and the encrypted messages are not locked to this specific app interface.
🖥 Requirements
Any modern browser — Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari. No extensions or plugins needed.
📝 Notes
- Encrypted output remains fully cross-compatible between the web version and the Android app — text encrypted on one can be decrypted on the other using the same password
- If you forget your password there is no way to recover the message
- The sitemap page was intentionally left untranslated in this release
