Encryption on Android

Encryption is a simple way to encrypt and decrypt strings on Android

This can be achieved by some third-party libraries, here we look about one among them

How to use 

1. Add JitPack to your build file

allprojects {
  repositories {
    ...
    maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
  }
}

2.Add the gradle dependency

compile 'com.github.simbiose:Encryption:2.0.1'

3. Get an Encryption instance

String key = "YourKey";
String salt = "YourSalt";
byte[] iv = new byte[16];
Encryption encryption = Encryption.getDefault(key, salt, iv);

4. Encrypt your text

String encrypted = encryption.encryptOrNull("Text to be encrypt");

5. Decrypt your text

String decrypted = encryption.decryptOrNull(encrypted);
