SmartDecrypt PDF ZIP
Auto-unlock PDFs & archives using saved filename patterns
What is SmartDecrypt? SmartDecrypt helps you unlock password-protected PDFs and archives without hunting through notes, messages, or old emails for the right password. Save a pattern once — such as a bank statement or invoice filename format — and SmartDecrypt matches future files automatically and decrypts them instantly, no prompts needed. Available as a universal purchase for both iPhone/iPad and Mac. Buy once, use on all your Apple devices with the same Apple ID.
Hey PH! 👋 Maker here.
I built SmartDecrypt because I was tired of the same monthly ritual:
bank statement arrives → encrypted PDF → dig through notes for the
password → unlock → repeat next month.
The password never changes. The filename barely changes. Yet I was
doing this manually every single time.
SmartDecrypt solves this with filename patterns. You teach it once —
"any file starting with 'DBS-statement' uses this password" — and
every future file that matches unlocks automatically. No prompts, no
searching.
It works across PDF, ZIP, and 7z. On iPhone you can send files
directly from the Share Sheet. On Mac it's drag and drop. On Windows
PC, right-click any file in Explorer. Passwords stay in the system
Keychain — never stored in plain text.
Free tier handles one file at a time. Pro ($9.99 one-time, universal
across iOS + macOS) unlocks batch processing and automatic password
cycling through all your saved patterns.
Happy to answer any questions — would love your honest feedback!
