OpenPGP encryption and key management for Android.

OpenKeychain manages OpenPGP keys and encrypted messages on Android. Users can store their own keys and contacts’ keys, find keys online, exchange them, and encrypt, decrypt or digitally sign messages. It integrates with applications such as K-9 Mail, and can import or export keys from storage and scan QR codes to add other people’s keys.
