Mobile devices,
especially smart phones are widely used today. Users may benefit from the
important services like banking, shopping and messaging, through these devices
in mobile environments.  This widespread
use requires the adoption of various measures to ensure the security of
personal information. In this study, a mobile application that allows mobile
messaging environment to the people communicating via encrypted messaging was
developed. In the application, Multi Fragmented Caesar Encryption algorithm was
used. The application was developed for Android devices. This application ensures
the information security while two users can message each other securely
through a shared encryption key.
