About PINCredible

PINCredible is an open-source Android app for storing PINs on the device. It encrypts data locally using AES/GCM/NoPadding and obfuscates each PIN inside a table layout surrounded by secure random numbers, so the app does not know where in the pattern the user's PIN is located. PIN digits are entered on an in-app keyboard, with optional shuffling of the digit buttons to limit touch-location logging. The project lists no internet connection requirement, no ads and no suspicious permissions, and offers an accessible color palette based on the IBM Color Blindness Palette.

The app requires Android 8.0 (API level 26) or newer and uses the Android KeyStore. APK releases on F-Droid and GitHub are signed with the same key and can be verified with apksigner; a Google Play release is only planned. The developer states no liability for lost PINs and does not guarantee that the app will always work properly or that PINs will never be lost.
