FileStasher: Photo Vault Safe

Hide photos, videos, IDs, and private files in an encrypted vault built for iPhone. No account, ads, analytics, or subscription. FREE & PREMIUM New free installs can store up to 30 items (250 MB), scan documents, organize folders, preview PDFs, and import from Photos, Files, or the share sheet. Existing users who had a vault before this limit was introduced stay unlimited. Premium is one purchase: unlimited storage plus a decoy vault, two-factor authentication, encrypted iCloud backup, Break-In Protection, Auto-Erase, Disguise, and photo-metadata removal. Existing Premium owners get every Premium feature at no extra cost. WHAT MAKES FILESTASHER DIFFERENT ▸ DECOY VAULT [Premium] A second passcode opens a separate decoy vault with different contents. Your real vault remains hidden, with no sign that it exists. ▸ BREAK-IN PROTECTION [Premium] When enabled and granted camera access, a wrong passcode can trigger a front-camera photo. Captures are encrypted and backed up to your own iCloud when available, so you can review them from another iPhone after unlocking with your real passcode. Location tagging is optional. ▸ AUTO-ERASE [Premium] Choose whether the vault should permanently erase itself after repeated wrong passcodes. It is off by default, the threshold is configurable, and arming it requires confirmation. ▸ DISGUISE [Premium] Choose a low-key alternate Home Screen icon. iOS changes the icon only; the displayed app name remains FileStasher. ▸ REMOVE PHOTO METADATA [Premium] Strip hidden GPS, EXIF, IPTC, and TIFF metadata from images on import and export while preserving orientation. Your original photo-library copy is not changed. ▸ TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION [Premium] Add a second layer with any standard authenticator app. Ten emergency backup codes help you regain access. ▸ END-TO-END ENCRYPTED iCLOUD BACKUP [Premium] Optional snapshots are encrypted on your device with your passcode before upload to your own iCloud. Restore them on another iPhone signed in to the same iCloud account. ▸ BUILT-IN DOCUMENT SCANNER Scan one or many pages straight into the vault as an encrypted PDF. Included with the free app. ▸ ZERO DATA COLLECTED No tracking, analytics, telemetry, third-party SDKs, or developer server. Your files and break-in captures are never sent to us. WHAT YOU CAN STORE • Photos and videos in their original format • IDs, passports, and driver's licenses • Tax forms, contracts, receipts, and medical documents • PDFs, including multi-page camera scans • Anything you can share from Files, Safari, Mail, Photos, Notes, and more HOW YOU UNLOCK Choose PIN, Face ID / Touch ID, or biometrics plus PIN. Premium can add authenticator-based 2FA. Repeated failures trigger a timed lockout. INSIDE THE VAULT • Color-coded folders nested as deeply as you need • Built-in image, video, and PDF previews • Batch export, move, and delete • Configurable auto-lock and instant lock when your device locks • VoiceOver support, accessibility labels, and Reduce Motion support SECURITY DETAILS Files use AES-256-GCM encryption via Apple's CryptoKit. Your encryption key is derived from your passcode using PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256. There is no master key, backdoor, or passcode-reset link; if you forget your passcode and have no usable backup path, your files cannot be recovered. LANGUAGES English, Russian, German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese. Every screen, prompt, and permission dialog is translated. iOS selects the language from your device settings. REQUIREMENTS • iPhone running iOS 18 or later • An iCloud account only for optional encrypted backup and Break-In Protection sync
