39 Algorithms

From fast checksums like CRC32 and xxHash to SHA-2, SHA-3 and BLAKE3.

Files & Text

Drop a file or paste a string — the hash is ready instantly.

100% Local

All processing happens on your device. No internet required.

Algorithms

A wide range of hash algorithms

From fast checksums to cryptographic-grade hashes — pick the one that fits your workflow.

Features

Everything you need

Simple, fast, and focused — designed to get out of your way.

Drag & Drop

Drag any file or folder straight into the app window. Hashing starts immediately — no extra steps needed.

Text Hashing

Type or paste any text and get its hash instantly. Useful for verifying API tokens, passwords, or any string value.

Share Extension

Hash files directly from Finder, Files app, or any app that supports sharing — without opening HashAgent Lite first.

Export Results

Export your hash results to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, or Parquet for use in reports, scripts, or audit logs.

Fast Multi-threaded

Large files are processed in parallel using all available CPU cores. Even multi-gigabyte files hash in seconds.

100% Local

All hashing happens on your device using native Apple frameworks. No internet required, no data ever leaves your computer.

iOS

iOS version notes

Due to iOS sandbox restrictions, a few things work differently compared to macOS.

  • All 39 hash algorithms, text hashing and hash comparison
  • Share Extension and copy to clipboard
  • Export to CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, Parquet via the Share Sheet
  • 100% local processing — identical to macOS

Works on iOS

Export Results — CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, Parquet

HashAgent Lite can export hash results in five formats. Because iOS sandboxes file access, exported files are shared via the system Share Sheet — save to Files, send by email, or open in any compatible app.

Works on iOS

What Works the Same on iOS

All 39 hash algorithms, text hashing, hash comparison, Share Extension, copy to clipboard, and 100% local processing all work identically on iOS as on macOS.

iOS restriction

File Paths Not Shown

iOS does not expose full filesystem paths to apps. HashAgent Lite shows the file name only — the full path cannot be displayed or copied. This is an iOS platform restriction, not an app limitation.

iOS restriction

Drag & Drop — Files Only (iPad)

On iPad, you can drag individual files from the Files app or other apps directly into HashAgent Lite. Dragging entire folders is not supported. On iPhone, use the file picker button or the Share Extension instead.

iOS restriction

Sandboxed File Access

iOS apps can only access files you explicitly grant access to through the system file picker or Share Extension. HashAgent Lite cannot scan folders in the background or access files outside its sandbox without your action.

iOS restriction

No Recursive Folder Scan

On iOS, it is not possible to recursively scan an entire folder and all its subfolders in one step. Files must be selected individually or shared one by one from other apps.

Use Cases

When to use it

Practical scenarios where hash verification makes the difference.

Validate Downloads

Downloaded an installer from the web? Generate its hash and compare with the value listed on the official website to confirm it was not tampered with.

Verify File Transfers

Need to confirm a file was not changed after sending it to a client? Hash it before and after — the result should be identical.

Monitor Backups

Running nightly backups? Hash your files regularly to spot silent corruption or accidental modification early.

Compare Files

Got two similar files and not sure if they are the same? Generate a hash for each and compare the values yourself.

Software Deployment

Deployed a software update? Hash the binaries before and after to make sure nothing was modified on the server.

IT Security & Forensics

Generate and log file hashes as proof that files were not altered after collection — standard practice in security audits and forensic investigations.

Local by design.

Every hash is calculated on your device — on Mac, iPhone and iPad.

Your data stays yoursFiles, settings and history never leave your device.
