Switch from Hider2 to SimpleumSafe
Hider 2 by MacPaw was discontinued on 2019-07-10.
SimpleumSafe is a suitable alternative / replacement to Hider 2
SimpleumSafe is an encryption and document management solution for macOS and iOS and is suitable for both private and business use. Unlike Hider 2, files are not decrypted directly in the file system for use. SimpleumSafe has its own Finder and can work directly with the encrypted files. While Hider 2 at encryption and decryption leaves data traces on the Mac this is not the case with SimpleumSafe.

Why are we switching SimpleumSafe to subscription?
Today we are switching SimpleumSafe to a subscription model.
Our customers want a constantly evolving, high-quality product - and subscription allows us to deliver on that expectation.
Why are we changing?
SimpleumSafe has been available at a one-time price since 2016. In 2017 we released version 2 without additional update costs. We have been working on SimpleumSafe 3 since 2019.
We develop for the Apple platform and unfortunately Apple has not introduced a proper update payment model yet. So for the past few years we’ve been considering the subscription model and wondering if it’s a suitable business model for us. The previous model has proved to be unsatisfactory.
