It seems that .pgp keys are not working with WisperBack Optional PGP key.

this fact should be explicit in the WhisperBack popup to add a PGP key

Note that the file extension doesn’t mean much. Is this really about armored vs. binary keys?

In WB, if users want to add the content of their key, if they open a binary, it’s all scrapped.

In the popup one should simply add “armored (.asc)” in the field to attach a GPG key.
