HashForgeMD5 & SHA hashes, verified
About
Generate and verify cryptographic hashes right on your device — fast, clean, and completely offline.
Type or paste any text, or pick a file, and get every common digest at once: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512. Tap any result to copy it. Checking a download or a signature? Paste the expected hash and see an instant match or mismatch.
HOW IT WORKS Enter your text or choose a file and the hashes compute immediately. Copy the one you need with a tap, or drop an expected value into the verify bar to confirm two files or strings are identical. Recent hashes are saved so you can find them again.
WHAT MAKES HASHFORGE DIFFERENT
- MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 in one view
- Hash both text and files
- Verify against an expected hash with a live match indicator
- One-tap copy for any result
- Recent history so nothing gets lost
- Clean, calm interface built for quick checks
PRICING
HashForge is free, with all hash algorithms, file hashing, and verification included. A one-time unlock adds an HMAC generator to sign messages with a secret key (MD5 through SHA-512), unlimited history instead of the most recent entries, and CSV export of your full hash log — buy once and keep it forever, no subscription.
FEEDBACK
Made by a small indie team. Email obeliskclubclub@gmail.com with feedback, bug reports, or feature requests.
PRIVACY Everything is computed on your device. No account, no sign-in, no tracking, and nothing ever leaves your phone.
Core Capabilities
Common hash algorithms
Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 digests in one view.
Text and file hashing
Hash pasted text or a local file without sending it to a server.
Hash verification
Compare a calculated digest with an expected value and see match status immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is it safe to paste an API key or password into an online hash generator?
- No — a web-based hash tool sends whatever you type to someone else's server, where it can be logged, and a secret that has left your control should be treated as compromised. This app computes MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 entirely on your device: no account, no sign-in, no tracking, and nothing ever leaves your phone.
- How do I verify a downloaded file's SHA-256 checksum on iPhone?
- Publishers list a checksum so you can confirm a download arrived intact and untampered — if your computed hash matches theirs, the file is byte-for-byte identical. In this hash generator, pick the file, paste the expected hash into the verify bar, and a live indicator shows an instant match or mismatch.
- What's the difference between MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256?
- They are all one-way digest functions, but MD5 and SHA-1 are cryptographically broken — practical collision attacks exist — so they should only be used for non-security checks like detecting accidental corruption, while SHA-256 remains the standard for integrity and signatures. The app computes all five common digests (MD5 through SHA-512) at once from the same input, so you can copy whichever one a given system expects.
- Can this app generate an HMAC with a secret key?
- Yes, with the Pro unlock, which adds an HMAC generator for signing messages with a secret key using MD5 through SHA-512 — handy for testing webhook signatures and API authentication. Pro is a one-time purchase with no subscription, and it also unlocks unlimited history and CSV export of your full hash log.
- Can I hash both text and files, and find hashes I computed earlier?
- Yes. Type or paste any text, or pick a file, and every digest computes immediately with one-tap copy on each result. Recent hashes are saved to a history so a value you computed earlier doesn't get lost; the Pro unlock extends this to unlimited history.
