Hashing your files requires a dedicated solution, especially if you’re after looking up specific algorithms for your workflow. Checking a file’s integrity, either for authenticity or comparison purposes, is a process that is order-of-the-day when security is concerned.

There are solutions to make the process more efficient and easier to digest. HashHash is a good example that marries form with function to provide an app that offers you the necessary tools to hash files and bodies of text in your chosen algorithm, as well as compare two files to see if they match.

A first glance at the program reveals an interface design that is very welcoming. Though hashing itself is no doubt a complicated process behind the scenes, the app maintains an ease of use that is consistent throughout all of its menus.

While likely no casual user is out checking for file hashes, the efforts to make the app as accessible as can be are appreciated insofar as they make picking it up easier, even by a less experienced audience.

You may calculate the hash for a file or text of your choosing, with the option to compare hashes also being readily available. This extends to the Compare Files menu, which lets you compare the hashes of two files on any of the available algorithms.

The presence of more common algorithms like MD5 and SHA, along with their respective variations, is not necessarily a surprise with this kind of tool. The Simple List, as the app likes to call it, is condensed so as to not overwhelm the user.

Unchecking Simple List will reveal the wide selection of algorithms mentioned prior. There’s a lot to work with, and you’ll likely find what you’re looking for without a problem. Some algorithms feature more than one option.

HashHash is a tool that is remarkably simple to use, making it a viable choice for any workflow that involves checking file hashes. With such a generous algorithm support, you’ll likely find just what you need here.
