If someone wants to use an AES encrypt/decrypt extension, then let me suggest to read the following article first before choosing...

You can find other AES encrypt/decrypt extensions in the extensions directory App Inventor Extensions | Pura Vida Apps

Hi, I have a question. I tried using IV, but it gives me the message "Runtime Error" (IV not used in ECB mode). Is there a way to change the mode? Honestly, if it doesn't have GCM or at least CBC encryption, it's not very secure.

It would really help if you provided a screenshot of your relevant blocks, so we can see what you are trying to do, and where the problem may be.

To get an image of your blocks, right click in the Blocks Editor and select "Download Blocks as Image". You might want to use an image editor to crop etc. if required. Then post it here in the community.
