About PixelKnot: Hidden Messages APK
Table Of Contents
Description
Have a secret that you want to share? Why not hide it in a picture? With PixelKnot, only your friends with the secret password can unlock your special message. Everyone else just sees a pretty picture. It’s a fun and easy way to share hidden messages without anyone knowing. Take those pixels, twist them in a knot, and see for yourself!★ DISGUISE YOUR MESSAGES: Pictures are public, the text is hidden inside. Even a trained eye will think the image is unedited. It’s security through obscurity!
★ FOR YOUR EYES ONLY: Put a password on the secret message to make sure that no one can read it except the person it’s meant for.
★ EASY IMAGE CHOOSER: You can use the camera to take photos, or just use photos you’ve already taken.
★ INVISIBLE CHANGES: Even a trained analyst analyst shouldn’t be able to detect any message. The image bytes should seem undistorted.
★ SHARE ACROSS PLATFORMS: Want to share the images over email, file sharing tools (like Dropbox & Sparkleshare), social media (like Google+ & Flickr) or directly through Bluetooth or NFC? Not a problem! The messages are still recoverable on the other side. We'll have even more tools (like Facebook) working soon, so stay tuned!
★ AD-FREE: We want your love, not your money.
★ MATHEMATICALLY SECURE: We use the newly developed steganography algorithm F5 which implements matrix encoding to improve the efficiency of embedding and employs permutative straddling to uniformly spread out the changes over the whole steganogram.
★ ATTACK RESISTANT: We’ve launched attacks on images with messages hidden in them using a specialized version of stegdetect, an automated tool for detecting steganographic content in images. In most cases, the pictures have been impervious to attack. We will be including detection in an upcoming version of the application so you can easily test it yourself!

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

1 ★not working man!
1 ★This app does not work
1 ★Unfortunately becomes stop
5 ★love it alot
1 ★App not working... I've entered a large section of text and the image came out cropped. However, that is not as bad as what I seemed to come across when I sent a mail to myself with that image. I discovered that the app also forwards a copy of the image to the developer!! Please explain the rational or you ought to be considered spy app
4 ★Like what I'm seeing so far with my Droid phone. Any plans to develop a version for Mac iOS? Additionally, I'd have to echo the comments about an inability to cut & paste from decrypted messages. You can obviously screen capture but this would not be at all helpful for very lengthy messages nor for further encoded data sent via a PixelKnot image. Thanks.
5 ★I don't want to put less than five stars because it was working absolutely great, but now I tried to use and it crashes when it reaches 8% in the process of hiding the text. I don't know if the problem is my Android version, because I am using it with Android 8.1.0. Please fix this issue, I know you're not a lucrative organisation, bit please make this awesome app work again
4 ★It does not explain how to open and retrieve msga from pictures. But uponreading comments i found a helpful explanation. Basically, once file isreceived, save it and open your photo folder. Once found, open it usingPixelknot. For some folks this part might be difficult to figure out.
3 ★The app works, and it certainly does exactly what it says it can do. However, the big feature that I see missing that I require is the ability to select and copy the received text from a decrypted image. I would like to embed an already encrypted pgp message and receiving without the ability to copy and paste completely breaks it for me.
2 ★Agree with others: if you're gonna give the ability to paste into it, gotto give the ability to copy from it. If a newbie pastes formatted text thatcomes out gibberish, could be readable IF able to copy to originalapplication. Currently, impossible. If the message gets lengthy, shiftsfocus, so you can't see the point where the cursor is. For an app out solong, really lame of the dev to allow so much absent basic functionalitybugs . If you're gonna offer something so half baked, why even botherwriting it at all?
2 ★Crashes after every attempt to mssg a pic. Says give us a minute we'll mssgyou when done. I say 'ok' app crashes. Nice idea. Terrible execution.
2 ★Continuously crashes and won't send any pictures. I really wanted to use this and it's such a great idea. To bad it doesn't work.
