Documentation
Everything you need to know about using Binify.
Getting Started
Enter your text or code into the editor. Choose expiration or view limits, and click "Encrypt & Share". Your data is encrypted immediately in your browser.
Syntax Highlighting
Binify supports 20+ languages with automatic detection. Select your language manually for perfect formatting.
Zero-Knowledge Design
Binify follows the principle of Zero-Knowledge. The server is "blind" to your content. This is achieved by storing the decryption key in the URL fragment (the part after the #), which is never sent to our servers by your browser.
Self-Destruction (Burn)
When "Burn after reading" is enabled, the server deletes the encrypted data immediately after it is retrieved for the first time. The secret exists only as long as it needs to be seen once.
Important
If you lose the URL generated for your paste, the data is permanently gone. We have no way to recover it.
