FAQ : Answers & Help
Answers to your questions about zero knowledge encryption, security, privacy, and how Inkrypt keeps your data safe.
Is Inkrypt completely free to use?
Yes, Inkrypt is completely free. We do not require any subscriptions, credit cards, or hidden fees to create and share encrypted notes.
Can I edit an encrypted note after creating it?
Yes, if you open an existing note and provide the correct password, you can edit its contents. The note will be re-encrypted and saved securely.
Can I manually delete a note before it expires?
Yes. Anyone with the correct password can open the note and choose to delete it permanently. Once deleted, the ciphertext is removed from our servers and cannot be recovered.
How does the view limit for shared notes work?
When you set a view limit (e.g., 5 views), our servers count how many times the encrypted data is requested. Once that limit is reached, the encrypted data is permanently deleted from our servers, rendering the link useless.
Do you log my IP address or track my activity?
We do not track your behavior, and we do not require any personal information (no email, no name). We collect minimal technical logs strictly for abuse prevention and security, but these are never linked to your identity or note contents.
What is the maximum size for an encrypted note?
Currently, Inkrypt is optimized for text. You can securely store large text documents and code snippets. We do not support uploading images, videos, or binary files at this time.
Does Inkrypt work on mobile devices?
Absolutely. Inkrypt is a fully responsive web application that works seamlessly on all modern mobile and desktop browsers without needing to install a dedicated app.
Can I use Inkrypt offline?
Because Inkrypt requires a connection to our servers to retrieve and store the encrypted ciphertext, you need an active internet connection to create, read, or edit notes.
Is there an API for creating encrypted notes programmatically?
Currently, Inkrypt is designed for user-to-user sharing via the web interface. We do not offer a public API for programmatic note creation at this time, as our focus is on client side encryption strictly within the browser environment.
