Abstract

In the twenty-first century, Mobile phones are utilized for applications beyond communication; people are encouraged to use them for personal computing due to the fact that they are more affordable, lighter, and smaller than computers. In this paper, the development of mobile application is presented for secret sharing schemes that necessitate a computing device in order for the recipient to decrypt the data. To discover the secret image at the receiver, a computer is a necessary computation device. An executable Android application that features rotating random grids and dual decoding options for the universal sharebased multi secret sharing scheme is developed. The application scenario includes both previewing and high-quality lossless recovery of multiple secrets in the proposed scheme. The presented Android application is useful in the recovery of highquality lossless secret images. The usability of this proposed scheme is assessed and comprehend the underlying security model.
