Mininigma: Enigma Simulator App Reviews

Implementing an Enigma simulator is not overly difficult, and there are several open source examples available on the Internet. What sets this application apart is the UI: the developer spent a lot of time and effort to recreate the look and feel of the original machine, down to the actual sounds. The result is visually rich, engaging, and just plain fun to use. If you're looking for fast, modern, bulk encryption...this is not it. But if you want to try one of the most historically significan

I wish there was the ability to have spaces, but I guess it would be less realistic.

This is a great app, it works just like the original Enigma that the Germans used in WW2. This also means it still has its weakness. A letter could never be itself; if this was fixed, I would give this 5 stars. This is a great app, works great. You can set it up they way u want on the rotors or the plugboard and get the Trillions different possibilities this machine has. If you are into code or ciphers, you should get this, and hopefully the developer will update to fix the weakness. P.S. Also

The app was great before and it just keeps getting better. The latest version includes a custom keyboard that increases the realism. The developer really cares about the quality of his app.

This is the app to have if your an Enigma fan or want to learn more about the German code machine that was used in World War II. This is the machine that was the subject of the movie "The Imitation Game". You can change the initial settings and type into the machine and get the coded message. You can also add the Enigma keyboard to your text messages and type code directly into a text message.

Wow, a lot of features in this app. The keyboard is especially responsive and the key word generator is really cool! There is every enigma model, and every rotor. The main thing is that there is no A reflector like on other enigma apps but I don't care about that. This is better than other enigma apps because it has a BACKSPACE! And to the devs, use keyword: Enigma BJRA QYMV AIWS LSAQ NJDS DE

A real enigma machine cost $300,000 + and I paid $1.99 to turn my phone into one highly recommend it!

Would be awesome to have the other models available that were made during the war.

This app looks absolutely wonderful… And from my testing, the app performs as advertised. My only real concerns are as follows: 1) The UI does not account for newer devices such as iPhone X as some of the elements are cut off towards the top due to how the screen and Face ID camera are set up. And also 2) The app is not compatible with the voiceover screen reader built-in to iOS. What does those two minor little grapes, great app. The developer should consider making appropriate changes to meet

The app works really well. I’ve read about the Enigma machine for many years and have become quite familiar with it including how it works. It looks great, too. A great emulator. Now for the bad part. All the help and tutorials are written in some bogus font that looks like a severely distressed typewriter. My tired old eyes struggle to read them. If the developers are reading this, please stick to a font that’s readily readable. If it wasn’t for this issue, this would be a five star review.

This app is more than just fun. It helps with the understanding of codes, cyphers and cryptography especially in today’s world of trolls and bots. Brilliant machine and brilliant app.

This is a really great app. Works well, easy to use, and fun! If you like ciphers and are interested in history then you need this app.

Thanks for the update

An Enigma wrapped in an app inside an iPhone. Outstanding use of the iPhone's technology to explain this technology from World War II. The artwork, use of sound and animation are excellent. The Bézier curves of the plug cords are an elegant touch. I was particularly happy to see the infamous 4-rotor variant of the machine. I searched the App Store for an Enigma simulator and this does not disappoint. Excellent workmanship. ★★★★★
