In this series of posts we are presenting current feature set (hidden gems) that eSteem Surfer is offering. Each post includes GIF animation with explanation to guide a reader through the process of using it. Note that these features are being improved constantly, you might notice some changes/additions in future releases.

eSteem Surfer 1.0.3 update brings memo and comment encryption options. This is our killer feature for now. Because there are no other Steem clients can offer it at the moment. But we hope other developers will implement it to their products soon. This option allows you to send encrypted memo wallet messages or comments which can be read only by you and a person you've sent it. For others it will look as strange numbers and symbols similar to bitcoin wallet codes.

Comments Encryption

  1. Just check the box with Encrypt
  2. Write a comment and that's it
  3. Others will see it as meaningless cipher.
  4. Recipient may read it using eSteem Surfer (for now). No special actions required.
