**(184) How do I password protect text?**
Select some text by long pressing it, and in the style toolbar at the bottom tap on the *<ins>A</ins>*-button and select *Password protect* in the pop-up menu.
Password protected text is sent as a [URI fragment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URI_fragment) and not stored on a server, and decrypted in the browser with JavaScript.
Password protected text is encrypted with AES/GCM with a 256 bits key derived with PBKDF2/SHA-512 with 120,000 iterations.
The maximum message text is 1,500 characters, which includes HTML formatting tags.
This feature is not available in the Play store version of the app.
