Adding the capacity for some level of encryption will broaden the use of the app by enabling companies to use the app if they have data privacy concerns.
For the remote access feature? Maybe, but our focus is physics education, so this will be very far down on our todo list. We usually have to deal with the kind of privacy concern where students mess with the experiment that is demonstrated by a teacher or lecturer. The simple solution is using the encryption of a separate network (via a hotstpot/tethering).
