GnuPG is a crypto tool, which implements standards like OpenPGP and Cryptographic Message Syntax. An email application is needed in addition to read and send OpenPGP/MIME or S/MIME emails. (There are other tools, that also implement those standards.) So your question can be understood in several dimentions: a) is there a port (or distribution) of GnuPG for Android? Not really. Details: There used to be https://github.com/guardianproject/gnupg-for-android but it is unmaintained and outdated. So it is technically feasable, but not one does the work. b) is there a port (or distribution) of GnuPG for iOS? Not that I know of. Details: There are probably technical and license challenges to port GnuPG to iOS. While I believe that it is possible to port C applications to iOS, it is unclear if someone could place it is in the appstore. Note that GnuPG ports to MacOSX exist. c) Are there compatible OpenPGP and OpenPGP/MIME implementations for Android? Yes, e.g. Openkeychain + K9Mail (both being Free Software) d) Are there compatible OpenPGP and OpenPGP/MIME implementations for iOS? Yes, though proprietary Software (AFAIK), for example I've heard about Canary Mail, iPGMail, PGPro, Safe Easy Privacy Regards, Bernhard -- www.intevation.de/~bernhard +49 541 33 508 3-3 Intevation GmbH, Osnabrück, DE; Amtsgericht Osnabrück, HRB 18998 Geschäftsführer Frank Koormann, Bernhard Reiter, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner
