You're not wrong: hashing is a one way function.
What I had in mind would be over complicated for an app such as this.
I am not an expert in the use of encryption and many people who do put themselves in that category have made fundamental errors which have completely compromised the user data; the LastPass Data Breach possibly being the most high profile one in recent times.
I know your app is not being offered "as a service", but it's still worth keeping in mind just how difficult it is to get this kind of thing right and how easy it is to get it wrong.
I will again have a look at your app and feedback if I see anything that I think you should re-visit.
