Using the PPAD mobile app
The PPAD mobile app is a viewer only — it lets you open and view PPAD-protected (.PPAD) files on your phone. It doesn't encrypt files or send them; it's for reading content that someone else has already protected with PPAD.
Opening a file from within the app
Open the PPAD mobile app.
Select the
.PPADfile you want to view from your device.Verify your identity with a one-time code sent to your email, or sign in with Google. (This only needs to be done the first time you use the app)
Once verified, the file opens with the sender's protection settings enforced (watermark, screen shield, expiry, print, and so on).
Opening a file you've received
If a .PPAD file lands on your phone — as a download, an attachment, an AirDrop, and so on — you can open it directly:
Android: Tap the file. Your phone will offer to open it with the PPAD mobile app.
iOS: iOS doesn't let files launch an app directly, so tap the Share button first, then select the PPAD mobile app from the share sheet.
From there, the flow is the same as above: verify your identity, then view the file with all protections enforced.
